Alligators have that beastly reputation, but few get this big.

These things are literally prehistoric, being around for centuries. These apex predators are adaptable and able to survive through all sorts of conditions. Alligators can get massive too, reaching over 1,000-pounds at their most and measuring over 15 feet long in some cases.

These things have one of the most powerful bites in the whole world, which can reach of 2,000 pounds per square inch. On top of that they can sprint at speeds of 35 miles per hours for a short distance, but far enough to capture prey with their death bite.

Naturally, a massive one isn’t the thing you want to see trotting through your yard or neighborhood. But that’s what folks who live in Florida and Louisiana, and a few other places, have to deal with on a regular basis. And there’s not much you can do about it.

This massive gator is seen walking through a neighborhood as everyone watches in awe and disbelief that they have to look out for something so huge. The gator doesn’t even look real as it walks along.
