For those that were praying for some closure to this horrific ordeal....

No details about where; only that 5 gators were destroyed in the search

That is the news of nightmares.I hope that the little boy's family can find a way to heal someday but I don't know if that is possible.

CNN is reporting that the body was found intact.  It is believed that the alligator drowned the toddler.  So glad for the parents.

What is good for the goose today will also be good for the gander tomorrow.

While they will grab, bite, and do their death roll, much like sharks I don't believe they generally eat us...

I'm glad the family will have his body so they can lay him to rest.  Can't imagine what they must be going through.  Last night I finally had a good cry - because of this, the shootings and a few things going on locally where I live.  Bless all the families who have lost a loved one.

@Andreatoo, there was a partial body found in the mouth of an alligator just a week or so ago.  Remains were found inside the alligator's stomach.

What is good for the goose today will also be good for the gander tomorrow.

Why didn't the gator eat the boy? Weird to me.

If they can get it down their throats, they'll eat it.

This is so sad. I did not expect a different outcome.
