10-Foot Gator Looks For Love Near Millenia Mall

Millenia had an unwelcome, early-morning guest on Wednesday.A 10-foot alligator parked himself along the sidewalk near the mall.

It isn’t clear how long the gator went unnoticed, but as soon as he caught someone’s eye, trappers were called in.

Trappers said they see more of the reptiles around this time of year when mating season begins.”Most of the time when you have a big single alligator, it’s usually a male adult searching for a girlfriend,” gator trapper Terry Parlier said.
