Any "nuisance" alligator larger than 4' is destroyed in FL when the public complains about the animal, and FWC decides to deal with it. People in this state need to learn how to live with alligators, and to not fear them, but to respect them.
By calling the FWC and filing a report, you signed the alligator's death warrant, when all it was doing was protecting it's offspring.
