National Alligator Day just passed… and on this episode of the reptiles with podcast we’re diving deep into the wildest, weirdest, and most shocking reptile encounters caught on camera and in the news. From a tragic gator attack in Lake Kissimmee to a Florida man swimming with alligators and threatening cops with garden shears—we break it all down. We also cover a tourist’s croc selfie that turned bloody, two bikers hitting a gator on the interstate, and viral Reels featuring a black caiman, a saltwater croc jaw test, and a baby gator doing a death roll. Most importantly, we share how YOU can stay safe and respect nature while out exploring. This episode is packed with reactions, laughs, and real talk about the wild world of reptiles.Sponsored by:MorphMarket: https://www.morphmarket.com/Dubia.com: https://dubiaroaches.com/Coco2Go: https://shop.cocodude.com/MERCH: https://modernreptileshop.com/collections/reptile-merch-for-sale1 Become a Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaQN1-ZcfQ6ulG2hE41lIKw/joinSubscribe & Hit the Bell to STAY INFORMED!Timestamps:00:00 National Alligator Day10:10 Florida Man Dies After Swimming in Lake Full of Gators12:30 Tourist Jumps in Croc Enclosure15:17 What is ZooKeeper Protocol 22:00 Bikers Hit Alligator on Interstate24:55 How to avoid close calls while out in nature 31:42 Reactions37:52 Does Chuck Really Know His Crocs?HostsYoshii @modernreptileshop Chuckey @madbioreptilesEric @reptiverseThe Reptiles With Podcast covers Repti-Culture with a comedic twist.
