Residents in an upscale community paused activities to marvel at the sight of a giant alligator crossing the road at Florida.
On Instagram, Devitt titled the same footage,“Welcome to Jurassic Park!”
In the footage, captured by a WINK viewer named Catalina, the alligator ignores its admirers as it plods toward one of the neighborhood lawns on trash day.
It was the third time in a month that Devitt shared a clip showing an alligator grabbing the spotlight merely by appearing in public.
One showed a large gator plowing through a metal fence, almost effortlessly, to reach the other side.
The other showed perhaps a larger gator sprawled on a golf course, gazing menacingly toward a photographer. Deviit also proclaimed that to be a “Jurassic” moment.
But alligators appearing in public places at this time of year should not come as a surprise. Florida is home to 1.3 million alligators and, like many critters, they increase activity as spring approaches.
But it’s always astonishing when the larger of these prehistoric-looking reptiles reveal themselves beyond marshes and swamps.
The longest alligator recorded in Florida was a male from Lake Washington in Brevard County, measuring 14 feet, 3-1/2 inches. The heaviest was a 1,043-pound male captured at Orange Lake in Alachua County.
