Alligator chills in a swimming pool amid rising heat
Recently, when a woman was about to take a dip in her pool, she spotted an alligator chilling inside the pool.
Summer's scorching heat has made an impact on all of us. Many hate to step out of their houses in this season and are always in search of something that would give them respite from the heat. And, it's not just us who look for respite, but animals too. And this incident involving an alligator proves the same. Recently, when a woman was about to take a dip in her pool, she spotted an alligator chilling inside the pool!
Pinellas County Sheriff's Office reported the incident last week. They shared in a Facebook post, "Here in FL, you do the stingray shuffle in the gulf and before hitting the pool you do the gator check. It's a part of life. One citizen was about to take a dip in the pool yesterday when she noticed this not-so-little one cooling off. She gave us a call. The gator was safely removed in a coordinated effort with MyFWC Florida Fish and Wildlife, and transported to a safe area."
