An alligator seen at a tarmac in an airport in Orlando Florida

Lake Charles, Louisiana

November 6, 2024 3:39pm CST

It is very odd for a ten foot alligator to be seen at a tarmac at the Orlando Executive Airport in Florida on October 26 when passengers aboard airplanes saw the alligator on the runway. An employee at the airport was seen doing his part to get the alligator away from the tarmac while airplanes were around. No one was hurt in the incident. Link is upi.com/6111730222830 via @upi

@rakski I have seen Three Stooges video shorts when the actors dealt with alligators and they were scared seeing one up close.

An alligator on a runway could cause a nasty accident.

That is true since an airplane could run over an alligator and blow out a tire aboard the airplane.

Maybe there is a lake somewhere nearby the airport, as why would an alligator move far from water, yet alone walk on a concreted hot area like that? It was good it moved on without getting onto the plane there first.

I am sure that there is a lake near the airport in Orlando Florida.
