I'm a FL resident (firmly NOT republican), Goto Disney Parks once or twice a month. It's amazing how people there will walk just inside a doorway and stop, or be in the center of a walkway with a group of half a dozen while oblivious to the mass of people around them. It's common to see people stand as a group blocking the entrance to attraction queues or even just entering the park they don't have their pass out before they get to the podium or they scan their pass wait a few seconds and then put their right index finger on the reader, both slow things down alot. Oddly those people are the ones you come across later in the day that insist on standing so close behind you in queues that shifting your weight will make you bump into them, it seems strange people don't grasp there's nothing to be gained from being close enough to smell what the person in front of you had for breakfast.

It's more common than you would think to come across a wild turkey(those bastards deserve the annual culling), deer, geese, coyote, a few months ago there was a black bear in tom sawyers island(they closed off a third of the park until it was captured). A few weeks ago I was leaving the magic kingdom and was going to walk from the main parking lot monorail station over to the bridge toward the Polynesian resort to the parking lot(I loathe the trams, prefer walking). I was just rounding the walkway and came across a snake that was upset about something in the center of the walkway. I think it was just a black snake, but I have a phobia for that particular type of animal. I reversed and took a different route. I have actually seen snakes a few times over the last couple years around the Polynesian resort, turkeys encounters are very common at the campground.

People think that because the parks are very safe as far as public places go that everything in the Disney bubble is "safe". If you're in an area where you aren't familiar with the local wildlife you should always err on the cautious side. But generally people are oblivious to anything around them.
