TALLAHASSEE, Fla. \u2014 Application periods for the Statewide Alligator Harvest Program and the Alligator Super Hunt opened on May 8 in Florida.<\/p>\n

These programs offer residents opportunities to hunt alligators across the state.<\/p>\n

The Statewide Alligator Harvest Program ensures all applications submitted for its Phase I have an equal chance of being selected for a single alligator management unit or county.<\/p>\n

Conversely, the Alligator Super Hunt allows applicants to submit multiple paid applications to increase their chances of being randomly drawn to hunt in most alligator management units and counties.<\/p>\n

The deadline for submitting applications for Phase I of the Statewide Alligator Harvest Program is May 18.<\/p>\n

Applicants for the Alligator Super Hunt have until June 8 to submit their applications.<\/p>\n

Applications for both programs can be submitted at any county tax collector\u2019s office, through a license agent, or online at GoOutdoorsFlorida.com.<\/p>\n
