An alligator has its mouth taped closed after being caught in a lagoon in a golf course by a trapper to relocate it to a more natural environment in Orlando, Florida, U.S., June 19, 2016. Walt Disney Co has had more than 240 “nuisance” alligators captured and killed over the last 10 years at its Florida theme park property, according to state records. The records reveal the park's constant struggle to keep alligators away from humans in a region where the creatures live and breed. As humans encroach into alligators' habitat, encounters are inevitable. (Photo by Carlo Allegri/Reuters)
