[00:01.92]Police have recovered the body of a small boy 
[00:05.80]who was attacked by an alligator  
[00:08.19]at Walt Disney World, say officials in Florida. 
[00:13.56]The attack took place Tuesday night 
[00:16.12]as the boy played at the edge of a lake 
[00:19.52]on the grounds of the Seven Seas Lagoon.
[00:23.64]The victim was identified as two-year-old 
[00:26.96]Lane Graves of Elkhorn, Nebraska 
[00:30.56]by Orange County Sherriff Jerry Demings,  
[00:33.84]reported the Associated Press.
[00:37.24]The boy and his family 
[00:39.52]had gone to Walt Disney World for a vacation. 
[00:43.72]They were wading in the water along a beach area 
[00:47.72]when the alligator grabbed the boy. 
[00:50.80]The boy was less than one meter from the shore when he was taken. 
[00:57.08]Demings said the boy's father tried ¨C 
[01:00.72]but was unable ¨C to pull the two-year-old 
[01:04.16]from the jaws of the alligator. 
[01:07.16]The animal was reported to be longer than one meter.  
[01:12.92]More than 50 people, including an alligator tracker, 
[01:17.36]searched the area overnight. 
[01:20.76]More searchers joined the hunt on Wednesday.  
[01:24.84]The Reuter news service says wildlife officials caught 
[01:29.60]and killed five alligators to examine them for signs of the boy. 
[01:35.84]Officials say there have not been other alligator attacks at the lake, 
[01:41.44]but signs in the area warned people not to swim. 
[01:45.76]Beaches and docks along the man-made lake have been closed.
[01:51.80]The lake is connected to other bodies of water 
[01:55.48]near Walt Disney World by canals, 
[01:58.68]and it feeds into another, larger lake.  
[02:02.76]Alligators are plentiful in Florida 
[02:06.72]and many states in the southeastern part of the U.S. 
[02:11.72]But experts say these kinds of attacks are not common.   
[02:17.60]Ten years ago, 
[02:20.48]an alligator drowned a small boy at a lake outside of Orlando. 
[02:26.16]The Associated Press reported 
[02:28.76]that the alligator was found 20 hours later, 
[02:32.56]still holding the boy in its jaws.
