I can relate to the officer’s understandable confusion. Years ago I was visiting my brother, who lives in a rural area. And to my horror, I discovered that a small bear had broken into the house. So naturally, I confronted the bear. That is my style.
Turns out that the bear belonged to my little nephew.

I think the officer is clowning around for the camera. The sculpture doesn’t look that much like a real alligator, plus nobody with any sense would try to grab the tail of a gator that size.

I’m surprised the cops didn’t shoot it 70 times.

Here is what I bet happened....
They were called by some Nervous Nelly about an alligator at the beach. They went out there and saw it was a sand alligator and then played around for some pics and posted on Facebook.
It doesn’t seem like they really thought they were pulling on a real alligator after they got there and walked up to it.
In short, a stupid take on what really happened. In other words, UPI didn’t get the joke.

It's possible that the officers involved fell for the prank if they have recently moved here from the bluer, 'defund the police' states up north. Unsurprisingly, they're not familiar with gators and that, combined with the sometimes mythical stories they get about our local fauna here in the Sunshine State, it wouldn't be hard to be snookered, especially in low light.
Or they knew full well what the deal was, and they were just hamming it up.
Either way, all in a day's fun.
