Rare event? Sure it is, but it's preventable, nonetheless. Just stay out of the water. No swimming. But many people come to Florida to go swimming, so that sure can put a damper on that idea.

Heck, I remember finding a diamondback rattlesnake right on the beach in Englewood. The people there who saw me catch it thought I was joking when I said it was a rattler.

Even the plants can bite you. How many of you have had an encounter with sand spurs or fire ants? They put a bit of a challenge into walking barefooted don't they? And I've heard that we now have killer bees as well...

And 3 gator attacks throughout the state in the past few weeks...
