Gator's Doorbell Blues

A large alligator, estimated to be around 11 feet long, was caught on video knocking on doors in a neighborhood in Fripp Island, South Carolina. The video, which quickly went viral, shows the alligator approaching a home and seemingly using its snout and body to push against the door, creating a knocking sound. Residents of the island, known for its wildlife, were both surprised and amused by the unusual behavior. The alligator's presence prompted calls to local authorities, who responded to manage the situation. It was determined that the alligator was likely searching for food or a mate. Wildlife officials and alligator handlers were called to the scene to safely capture and relocate the large reptile. The alligator was successfully captured without incident or injury to either the animal or any residents. It was subsequently moved to a more suitable and natural habitat away from residential areas, ensuring the safety of both the community and the alligator itself. The incident served as a reminder of the close proximity of wildlife to residential areas on the island. find the original article here: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/videos/large-alligator-caught-knocking-doors-201800263.html
