Tragic, but letting your 2 y/o by a lake at night in Florida is close to neglect in my book.

A 2-year-old boy who was attacked and dragged into the water by an alligator on the shores of Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Tuesday night was still missing early Wednesday morning.

Deputies are in the water and air, calling it a search-and-rescue operation.

"Right now we're going to bring in some fresh eyes and continue with the search," said Jeff Williamson, a spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Office. "Prepare for the worst, hope for the best."

Teams searching for the toddler found four gators, but no sign of the child.

Deputies are using sonar today to search the Seven Seas Lagoon man made lake, with help from a helicopter and 10-person dive team, Williamson said.

Additional Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officers are also in boats searching.

Nick Wiley, executive director of FWC, said investigators aren't giving up hope in their search, but the chances of a successful rescue fade the longer it goes on.

"Right now, all we're doing is searching for a little boy to hopefully bring a family some closure," Williamson said.

A trapper is on scene to catch any suspected gators, he said. They're still examining the four caught overnight.

Splashing in the water caught the attention of guests, who realized the boy was grabbed.

The family of four from Nebraska checked into Disney on Sunday night. There is also a 4-year-old girl with the parents.

One employee at the resort who did not want to be identified said in an email "There is such a problem on property with guests feeding the alligators thinking it's cool." There are two at the Buena Vista Palace that people regularly feed from balconies, he said.

Dad tried to save son

Demings said the family was relaxing on the shoreline when the alligator attacked the boy. The father entered the water and tried to pry the child from the gator, but was unsuccessful. He had scratches on his hands after the ordeal.

Parents then alerted a nearby lifeguard that an alligator had attacked the boy. Officials estimated it was between four and seven feet long.

That would mean that Disney knew about the dangers and may be liable if something happened.  Many times we can't put snowmobile signs up because of that very reason.

There are Gators where you snowmobile?

Yeah, we can change the laws if it saves life's right?

Now that they're off the endangered species list, I don't see why we can't shoot their asses.
