Good job Phil. We took a tour year before last outside of Garyville La. They fed them marshmellows also. My Aunt an Uncle lived in Baton Rouge and Brother and Sister-in-law lives in Garyville. Approx. 30 miles north of New Orleans.
A few years ago Loraine and I did a motorcycle trip down to FL, LA, GA, Tenn. While in New Orleans we took a bus tour of the city. At the end of the trip our driver pulled over and ask us all to get out ?????. He then got his bag of marshmallows out and walk over to the side of the bridge. Here is a 2 min. video of what happen. How cool was this. Touring America

I don't want to be a stick in the mud, but it is illegal to feed alligators in LA. & FL., I don't know about other states or when the laws started. I think the main problem is that feeding helps remove alligators fear of humans & the gators come looking for food, this can cause a lot of problems, loss of arms, legs & life. If the gators are labeled a nuisance, by a human, they are trapped & killed because of a human.
I think it is great & very interesting to watch animals in the wild, but I let them feed themselves. Than there are the times I like to watch & choose which one I'll take for my food.
my tour guide in La was feeding this one chickens

Surprised that tour guides get away with this gator feeding business.
