Of course we also have the gators to deal with.
I've got up close, and personal with a few gators, several water moccasins, and a couple Diamondback rattle snakes. Never had to use the gun thou.

So I read somewhere that there are only around 30 panthers left in Florida and that your chances of seeing one are about the same as winning the lottery... I would hope that if you did see one you would only shoot it with the camera and not the gun.... and then would go buy a lottery ticket and spend your winnings on getting everyone here at DPS some new gear. I know I for one would love the D200 or D2Xs.
