Watch video of an 11-foot gator that takes a dip in a Florida family’s swimming pool
An 11-foot alligator took a dip in a Sarasota family’s swimming pool, leading Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office to exclaim in a Facebook post, “Just no.”
Trappers secured the thrashing reptile and removed the gator — which didn’t seem all too pleased giving up its evening swim, as seen on a video officers posted on social media.
The animal broke through a screened-in porch to enter the pool, homeowner Patricia Carver told WFLA. She told the station her husband woke up when he heard the loud noise.
He opened the curtain and saw the head of a gator and said, ‘Call 911, call 911!’” Carver told the station.
