According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Clark and her boyfriend had been hiking before deciding to stop and swim in the river.

“They were hiking, and they just stopped to swim,” Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission spokesperson Chad Weber told reporters during a Monday press conference.

Authorities said the attack occurred while Clark was in approximately three feet of water.

“She was bitten on both of her arms,” Weber said.

“The boyfriend was the one that made the phone call. He was trying to get her from the alligator’s mouth, and on the way to the hospital, she did pass away from her injuries.”

Clark’s boyfriend, identified by the Daily Mail as Chance Allison, attempted to rescue her during the attack before calling 911.

Emergency dispatch audio captured the urgency of the situation as those at the scene sought immediate medical assistance.

A woman on the call described Clark’s condition as “horrible,” saying, “one of her arms is completely off, and the other one is like attached barely.”

Another caller pleaded for emergency responders to arrive quickly.

“Bad, real bad, please, hurry… she’s losing a lot of blood… we need to stop the blood,” the caller said.

The 911 call has been released after 31-year-old Brittany Clark, who was bitten by an alligator in Florida on Sunday, died on her way to the #hospital.

Clark was transported for medical treatment but died from her injuries while en route to the hospital, according to Weber.

Following the attack, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officers located the alligator believed to have been involved.

Officials later euthanized the animal and retained its head as evidence as part of the investigation.

Clark’s social media accounts painted the picture of someone who spent much of her free time outdoors. Friends and followers saw frequent posts featuring hiking, motorcycles, firearms, and travel, along with photos from music festivals.

She reportedly worked for several years as a dozer operator while also enjoying raves and outdoor recreation outside of work.

One Instagram post reflected her enthusiasm for music festivals and included the caption: “Physically I’m at work headbanging in my dozer, but mentally I never left Tinker Field.”

Clark also regularly shared photographs of her pets, motorcycles, and firearms, highlighting hobbies that extended well beyond her professional career.

The attack has drawn renewed attention to safety around Florida’s rivers and waterways, where alligators are commonly found throughout the state.

Little Big Econ State Forest, where the incident occurred, is a popular destination for hiking, paddling, and other outdoor recreation.

Florida wildlife officials have not announced any additional enforcement actions beyond removing the alligator believed to have been involved in the fatal attack.

The investigation into the incident remains under the direction of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
