A sign we encountered in south GA. Did this mean only campers could swim? I tried to get my wife to take a swim, but, no luck.

Perhaps the gators are employees of the park and will not eat the paying guests. They could also be hired to monitor camp-only restrooms and showers.

In Australia those humps are called ‘sleeping policemen”.

Things get a bit slow down under?! What cop in their right minds would fall asleep on duty with things happening like they are now?

Not at the campground but on the road leading to Doris Campground in southwest Oklahoma, going through Fort Sill Military Reservation.

Speaking of gator signs, here's a pic I took at a lake I take puppy to every day in FL. It is full of gators and at night you can see little red eyes all over the place. This gator is right under the sign (almost-you need to enlarge). He was maybe 6' long waiting for someone that couldn't read I guess. That same year a fellow decided to throw toys in the lake for his dog to fetch just around the corner....puppy didn't come back after one of the tosses.

Every year, down around Cameron, LA, some duck hunter "loses a prize retriever"... There is "one road into Cameron, along the bayous. If you're not careful, you'll run over an alligator (or more than one) laying in the road "sunning".... They crawl up on the shoulders of the road, out of the swamp, to warm themselves. At night, most people slow to 45 or less, for fear of running over one and losing control of their car. The LAST place you want to be is in the bayou, at night, after running off the road.....

Anyway, duck hunters "accept the risk" that their prize retriever may not make it back with the duck they just shot..... More than "a few" good dogs have met their fate in the marsh around Cameron......

Darn! I've been in dangerous places (Okinawa, Turkey, bars, etc.) but having the local wildlife hanging around your campsite is crazy. Of course, the guy who enticed his dog to go swim with the gators is darn crazy.

Having artillery fire going over would cause some people issues. If it just keeps going, not so bad, but if you hear the sound change.....
