‘Insufferable bottom feeders’: Streamers could face felonies for allegedly firing rounds into Florida gator

The streamers are out of control, y’all.

An attention-seeking social media personality who goes by “Clavicular,” real name Braden Eric Peters, sparked massive outrage when he and his crew shared a video of themselves shooting at an alligator in the Florida Everglades.

There are mixed reports on whether or not the alligator was dead at the time of the alleged shooting:

As X’s community notes state, Peters and his team could be facing a felony.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Service did indeed announce Thursday night that they were aware of the situation and investigating.

Peters was arrested around the same time as the alligator incident, but that was in connection with a prior warrant for an assault misdemeanor charge involving his girlfriend and another influencer.

Many social media users mistakenly assumed the alleged battery arrest was for shooting the gator.

That was reportedly his second arrest in six weeks, and X users sounded off in eager anticipation of his third:

There’s a massive disparity between ethical hunting and culling vs allegedly killing for clicks.

Thus far, it doesn’t appear that arrests have much of an effect on Peters, unfortunately.
