Within the first 28 hours, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission sold 4,079 alligator hunt permits.

As of 2 p.m. today, only 448 permits remained. About 4,500 alligator hunt permits went on sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday on a first-come, first served basis. During this period, people are allowed to purchase only one permit per person - enabling them to take two alligators.

The deadline to purchase a permit is 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on June 18. At 10 a.m. (EDT) June 19, sales will resume, and people will be allowed to buy multiple permits, if any remain.
