Gators migrate between ponds looking for a mate. We have gators crossing streets into ponds all the time.

Little young gator, let him has his fun, keep the yappy dogs and housecats away else it will be gator snack time.

This is what happens when you don’t check your pool’s chlorine level regularly…

How did they get there?

It's freaking Florida... You can't swing a dead cat without hitting an Alligator in Florida!

How’d that get there?

Via a tail-swinging low crawl.

In FL, if there’s water, there can be gators.

Here in Tennessee we don’t need to worry about Gators taking over our swimming pools; all we need to worry about is bears doing the same thing. Oh, and there are some snakes who’ve done it in my pool.

The only thing better than having a pool is having a brother in law who has a pool.

There’s nothing at all unusual about this in Florida. When you take the road to Ponte Vedra from A1A there is an area on your right that has thick bushes and a lagoon....hell, maybe its fresh water but anyway, there’s a little body of water there. No doubt that’s where the Gator came from. Ponte Vedra is just a few blocks wide at the widest and its only a little 2 lane road the Gator would have to cross to get there.

Oh and as always, GO GATORS!!!!

Have seen videos of them climbing chain-link fences. Worrisome!

Long before man was on earth....
Gators crocs and sharks have been around for 200 million years. The dinosaurs died but these three survived.

We escaped to FL 20 yrs ago. About 2 weeks after the move the hubs and I took our bikes (motorcycles) out to a popular restaurant on one of the keys. Coming back, as we’re rounding a corner the hubs in front motioned for me to slow down. We both stopped and when I looked in front of him I thought to myself, ‘Why would someone throw a palm tree across the road?’, until the ‘palm tree’ got up and walked the rest of the way across the road. LMAO, my first encounter with an alligator...welcome to FL, LOL.

I am an outdoorsman and a true conservationist unlike the liberals who just put own a show. I’ve encountered gators snakes bears and enjoy their beauty unless in harms way. I tell people to stay out of harms way be vigilant and just let them be and do their thing. That being said. Doesn’t hurt to be armed. 😎
