Alligator Attack Statistics

Florida logged 28 alligator bites in 2023, a 12% jump, yet the risk keeps shifting toward people who are closest to the water rather than whoever looks most “gator ready.” With males making up 72% of bites, adults over 30 driving 65% of incidents, and a nationwide fatality rate of 1 in 25 bites, this page connects the who and the how to the injuries that follow, including the stark fact that 80% of US alligator deaths happen in Florida.

Fatality Statistics Interpretation

While Floridians face only a one in 3.1 million annual chance of a fatal alligator attack, the statistics reveal a grimly consistent rule: if you're going to be unlucky enough to be that one, you'll almost certainly be in Florida, it will likely be in May or June, and you'll have had the profound misfortune of encountering an alligator over ten feet long.
