A friend from Florida sent me this one:

    The Florida State Department of Fish and Wildlife is advising
hikers, hunters, fishers and golfers to take extra precautions and keep
alert for alligators while in Osceola, Polk, Brevard, Orange and
Hillsborough counties. They advise people to wear noise-producing
devices such as little bells on their clothing, to alert but not startle
the alligators. They also advise carrying pepper spray in case of an
encounter with an alligator.

It is also a good idea to watch for fresh signs of alligator activity.
People should know the difference between small young alligator and
large adult alligator droppings.
Young alligator droppings are smaller and contain fish bones and
possibly bird feathers.
Adult alligator droppings have little bells in them and smell like
pepper spray.
