‘There are no gators in Missouri’: Escaped pet alligator shocks neighbor

Not all pets are cuddly.

A Missouri resident said he was shocked when he noticed an alligator on his property, especially since gators don’t live in the area. Fortunately, due to some quick thinking, the animal was contained and nobody was injured. Chris Suljack, of Wildwood, spoke with Fox News and explained that he was mowing the lawn when he saw something in the creek on his property. While he recognized it as an alligator tail, he initially had trouble getting his family to believe him.
