2015 Florida Alligator Hunting Survey Report

The Alligator Management Program of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission surveyed alligator hunters that were permitted in 2015 to gather information about this program and to help provide better service to our constituents. The survey was intended only for those persons who received an alligator harvest permit in 2015. The survey announcement (attached) was sent via e-mail to all 2015 permit holders for which we had an e-mail address. This included 5,155 addresses from a total of 5,719 permittees. Potential survey respondents were given 27 days to complete the survey. There were 1,791 responses.

The following data represent relationships between responses that may provide useful information for the management of alligator hunts. A Survey Summary which includes the number of responses and the response rate for each question also follows. The survey instrument is also attached.

General Statistics:

The following are averages of responses from survey questions 8, 9, and 10, respectively.

Average number of nights spent hunting alligators: 5.3 Average number of hours spent hunting alligators: 32 Average number of alligators harvested per person: 1.2

Responses for these questions for each AMU is contained in Table 2.

Methods of alligator hunting:

This survey question was intended to determine the most popular methods of hunting. The overall percentages are contained in the Question 11 graph in the survey summary, attached. Responses for each AMU are contained in Table 2. Figure 2 shows the method responses, but separates guided and unguided data. Figure 3 gives the average number of alligators harvested by respondents who primarily use the listed methods. (The survey questions do not ask the exact method used to take each alligator).

Alligator Hunter Density:

Question 17 of the survey was used to gather information on the effect of perceived hunter density on the quality of the hunting experience. Total responses for this question are summarized on page 20 of the Survey Summary. Responses for each AMU are contained in Table 2.

Table 1. AMUs with a high number of respondents indicating that there were too many alligator hunters on their harvest unit. This table only includes areas above the statewide average (12.1%) with more than one response of too many hunters.

The final question in the survey, Question 27, was a text box in which respondents could comment on any topic. These comments, made by 556 respondents, were subjectively placed into three classes: positive, negative, and neutral. Positive comments included highly satisfactory hunts and compliments on the management of the program. Negative comments included dissatisfaction with the application process, complaints about under- and over- harvesting, and overcrowding issues. Neutral comments were primarily suggestions for program changes or remarks about the hunt that had neither positive nor negative connotations.
