Fortunately we've developed powerful anti-alligator tools:

Someone I know literally had to have surgery on her wrist because of quite a deep cheetah scratch.Cheetahs aren't especially good at anything but running. They don't even have claws. They're the one big cat an adult human has a chance against.
Yeah I guess that's part of the problem, yesterday I saw a Tiktok of a guy running around grabbing all sort of wildlife from snakes, deers, turtles and more relevantly alligators and it didn't seem like some human eating machine. But it wasn't anywhere close the size of the one from the cheetah video
What? They don't look nearly that fast. That's pretty surprising.
About the jaws, I remember reading some time ago that the jaws are powerful but only in the close direction so a human can easily keep them shut. Worst case scenario they get one bite maybe.
Depends on what they bite no? If it gets my leg or something it'd hurt like hell but not kill me. If it gets my neck or something sure but I meant more so a limb.

I can't tell if you're trolling or not, but honestly if you are A+ because you made me mad with some of your responses lmao. These facts are something you'd find with a 2 second google search. Willful ignorance is not cute. You strike me as someone who would come into a thread about a serious topic demanding everyone do their research for them.Just to be clear because I kinda goofed in the title by including alligators and crocodiles, can an *alligator* do all of this?
They have very muscular bodies including their legs. They can't move fast for long periods on land, but they can outpace humans in bursts.It's not surprising to me that these jaws would fuck me up, but what I still find bewildering is why are they so fast? Or why are we so slow? They look like an oversized wiener dog. Each leg movement must move by like a foot or something .

Also these things can jump out of the water.
While they seem like they don't move much, they have these explosive bursts of movement for ambushing their prey.
Only reason we are where we are is we invented tools.
Without them, we're rather fucking mid.
NGL if I could have a big cat as a pet I would. But I like my larynx where it is so I'll just stick to my 3 moggies.You're right, OP. And on that note, can we talk about lions? Like, look at them. They're just big cats. They are not nearly as dangerous as they look. Just throw a ball of yarn in its direction and it turns into a big softie.
This you?Depends on what they bite no? If it gets my leg or something it'd hurt like hell but not kill me. If it gets my neck or something sure but I meant more so a limb.
....... But.... That's literally what you're doing? You're literally vastly overestimating your ability while underestimating this animal. Which is precisely what the "I could take a lion" people do.I promise I'm not trying to sound like a "I could kill a bear" dumbass
I feel like a good chunk of the population would struggle with a medium sized dog if it really came down to it. This thread ain't swaying that.

While many animals are very dangerous for humans to be around humans are also pretty fucking scary as hunters. One very big advantage humans have over other animals is endurance, antelopes are very fast for example but only for short bursts, human hunters can just jog towards an antelope herd until they run away, humans follow them until they get close again and the antelopes run again, rinse and repeat until the antelopes are exhausted and easy prey. To antelopes humans are basically monsters who just keep coming, you can run away but you cannot escape.Grass is greener but you read and see all these incredible things animals can do and I'm" like "dang, humans kind of suck in comparison".

Hunters herded the bison and drove them over the cliff, breaking their legs and rendering them immobile.
The earliest recorded mention of pigeons comes from Mesopotamia some 5,000 years ago.[8] Pigeon Valley in Cappadocia has rock formations that were carved into ancient dovecotes. Ancient Egyptians kept vast quantities of them, and would sacrifice tens of thousands at a time for ritual purposes.[9] Akbar the Great traveled with a coterie of thousands of pigeons.[10][11][12]

Reminds me of this post where ~9% of Americans think they could beat an elephant, lion, gorilla, crocodile etc in a fight. Like, how fucking delusional do you need to be?!
Don't forget slightly bulletproof, fast, bite boats in half and is so strong that even though it's heavy it swims by essentially jumpingHey guys idk how Hippos are dangerous. Sure they're as big as a truck, have huge sharp teeth, and are hyper aggressive. I've looked at pictures of them though and they look pretty chubby so I don't get it
