Brevard County prohibits feeding alligators and sandhill cranes (Florida state crime). FWC Rule 68A-4.001 bans feeding most wildlife. Bear feeding illegal within county. Sea turtle disturbance (including feeding) prohibited May-October under FL §379.2431.
Brevard County has significant wildlife concerns due to its coastal, lagoon, and upland habitats. Feeding alligators is a second-degree misdemeanor under FL §372.667 with fines up to $500 and possible 60 days jail, as fed gators lose fear of humans and become dangerous. Sandhill crane feeding prohibited under FWC Rule 68A-4.001. Florida black bear feeding (more common in western Brevard near Three Forks Conservation Area) is prohibited under FL §68A-4.001. Sea turtle interference including feeding, touching, or disturbing nests is a federal crime under the Endangered Species Act and FL §379.2431, enforced May 1 through October 31 along Brevard's 72-mile coastline. Manatee feeding prohibited under FL §379.2431 and federal Marine Mammal Protection Act. Unsecured pet food and open trash can trigger citations as unintentional feeding.
Alligator feeding: 2nd degree misdemeanor, up to $500 and 60 days jail. Bear feeding: FWC citation, fines to $1,000. Sea turtle disturbance: federal charges possible, up to $25,000 civil penalty. Manatee harassment: federal offense.
