Welcome to Florida

J.R. Greene enjoys taking "Sweetie," the blind, 6-foot rescue alligator he cares for at Jungle Adventures wildlife park in Christmas, Florida to the Florida Key Lime Pie Store in Cocoa Beach. Despite her name, Sweetie does not eat pie.
A photo of Sweetie and J.R. at the Pie Store went viral recently as a classic, "only in Florida" sighting. 
Craig Pittman and Chadd Scott talk to J.R. about how citizens in Florida share the state with alligators, safety tips for dealing with alligators, alligators' surprising comeback story in Florida and what to see and do at Jungle Adventures.

In this series, Craig and Chadd will explore Florida's history, people, politics, environment, animals, current events and weirdness.
