Unemployed in Florida? Enjoy an adrenalin rush? Like to live life on the dangerous side? Enjoy Working outside? The state of Florida is now hiring crocodile wranglers, no experience necessary. If you are hired, you will be trained by the state to be a professional alligator handler.
Florida’s saltwater crocodiles have gone from being on the endangered species list to a nuisance in the Florida Keys. But don’t get the wrong idea about this job, Crocodile Response Agents are not sent out to destroy these animals, which are still on the threatened list. They are there to subdue, removes and relocate the large and deadly reptiles.
Those who are interested in applying for the job, need have no previous experience in the field, on-the-job training is available. Although this job is on an as-needed basis, $25 per hour while on duty is pretty nice supplemental income for anyone looking for a little more adventure in their lives.
