It is illegal to shoot at any animal within city limits in Florida, no matter what type of gun. Seeing that a BB gun will not kill a gator, it may be considered animal abuse, depending on the situation. If you are intending to hunt gators, then you must have an alligator harvest permit. The laws in Florida in regards to wildlife and firearms are constantly changing. Your best bet it to call the Florida Wildlife Commission Gator Hotline at 866-392-4286. They can give you the most up to date advice.
