Our "Safety Guy" told us about an experience one of our neighbors had last night (Aug 20) with the charming little guy pictured above. As we listened to this story we were reminded to ..."leave catching alligators up to the professional. Even a little one is dangerous."
This encounter took place around 7:00 PM near the Reserve at the rear of the VeronaWalk Property. The interesting thing was the Gator was not in the water. It also wasn't even near the water ! It was up on one of our main roads.
It was first observed jogging (quite fast too) across VW Circle. At least three cars stopped to check it out. The gator was lucky it did not get run over by one of the vehicles. When it stopped, in the middle of the roundabout, it was captured and returned to a canal.
Our friend, always with his camera, was in one of the cars that stopped. He caught a few pictures of this incident, but did so from inside his car - safe, sound, and scared.
Hope you enjoy looking at the pictures. Let them serve again as a reminder to always: "Stay Safe. Do not engage an alligator".
