Authorities in Florida responded to a report of an “animal problem” in a residential neighborhood and arrived to find an alligator scratching at the front door of a home.
The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post that deputies responded Sunday night “to a call about an animal problem” at a Flagler County home.
The deputies arrived to find an alligator on the doorstep of the home, apparently trying to find a way into the residence.
The sheriff’s office said deputies and personnel from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission relocated the gator to a more suitable habitat “away from the residential area.”
Last night, deputies responded to a call about an animal problem and found an alligator 🐊 on a doorstep. #FCSO and #FWC saved the day and got him away from the residential area. Great teamwork! 👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/MGAxAeKY9p
