Here’s The Story
A visitor to the Orlando Wetlands Park recently captured a series of unusual images showing an adult alligator seemingly consuming a smaller reptile. Barbara D’Angelo, a retired resident who splits her time between Florida and Michigan, was the one who managed to photograph this peculiar wildlife encounter on March 6.
“I was looking westerly when I heard a splash behind me and saw a large alligator with something large in his mouth,” D’Angelo shared with Fox News Digital. “I thought it was a duck at first because they are mostly dark.”
