Senate Resolution No. urges the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries and the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission, in collaboration with the Alligator Advisory Council, to conduct a study and provide recommendations for managing the state's alligator populations. This initiative arises from the successful conservation efforts that have revived the American alligator from near extinction to a thriving population, which has subsequently led to increased human-wildlife conflicts, including attacks on pets, livestock, and humans.

The resolution highlights the need to reassess management strategies to balance the protection of the alligator species with public safety and wildlife habitat preservation. It calls for an examination of various management techniques, such as adjusting the number of alligators returned to the wild from egg collection, increasing hunting tags, and addressing nuisance alligators. The findings and recommendations from this study are to be reported to the Senate Natural Resources Committee by February 14, 2025.
