About I Hunted Florida's Deadliest Reptile at Night... Here's What Happened

Florida is famous for its million-plus alligators, but a much rarer, more aggressive predator is making a prehistoric comeback. The American crocodile once faced total extinction, yet against all odds, these ancient reptiles are reclaiming their territory in the southernmost reaches of the United States. While alligators and crocodiles look similar to the untrained eye, their temperaments and survival tactics are worlds apart. From high-stakes night captures on airboats to the discovery of living fossils that inspired Hollywood horror, this is the story of nature’s most resilient survivor proving that the age of the dinosaur hasn't ended just yet.
