Alligator Found in a Tree

In Florida, an alligator was spotted in a tree branch.

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials confirmed that Saracino was right, and the animal was indeed an alligator, according to Orlando Weekly.

And while most laypeople would be startled to see one of the large reptiles on a tree branch, tree-climbing is actually “surprisingly common” behavior for alligators and crocodiles, according to a 2014 study published in the journal Herpetology Notes.

So, yeah … look up before you climb. And if you live in or are visiting gator country, read up on how to coexist peacefully with alligators.
