They're a significant issue here, and they're super dangerous. My step-father was charged by one before. He shot it point blank in the forehead with a 9mm pistol, and the bullet went in the scalp, traveled around the skull and out the back. All it did was stun it long enough for him to grab a rifle out of the gator. But I think you'd fall in the definition that puts the number at 20%. That one is basically, "not in a major metropolitan area." permalink fedilink source parent
