(Worthy Satire) – In what officials are calling “an ecological insurrection,” the mosquito population in Alligator Alcatraz has reached apocalyptic levels, leaving residents, tourists, and local gators alike begging for mercy — or at least citronella.
Despite round-the-clock fogging and repellent sprays, the bloodthirsty swarm remains undeterred. “It’s like they evolved in a military lab,” said park ranger Dwayne Simmons, slapping his neck mid-interview. “They smell DEET and just laugh.”
A group of human rights activists-turned-victims-turned-protesters gathered outside the ranger station Sunday afternoon, waving signs reading “My Blood, My Choice” and “No Justice, No Repellent!” They chanted slogans demanding an immediate mosquito disarmament and the deployment of UN peacekeeping dragonflies.
One protester, still visibly pockmarked, claimed the mosquitoes had formed “bite militias” and were targeting visitors based on blood type. “O-positive lives matter,” she wept, holding up her anti-itch cream like a white flag.
Eyewitnesses say a faction of mosquitoes even infiltrated a vegan picnic, mistaking hummus for warm-blooded prey. “We didn’t stand a chance,” said Ezekiel Greenbaum, 29, who came to Alligator Alcatraz for a “spiritual detox” and left “emotionally and literally drained.”
Local alligators, meanwhile, are reportedly considering a formal alliance with the mosquitoes. “We eat meat, they drink it,” said one anonymous reptile. “It’s synergy.”
Experts warn that unless swift diplomatic action is taken — or at least stronger bug zappers are deployed — Alligator Alcatraz may soon become the first U.S. territory governed by a mosquito junta.
