- A man over in Florida was bitten by an alligator after mistaking the 7-foot long reptile for a dog.
- The massive gator launched its attack on the 49-year-old man on Tuesday, 7 June, although thankfully it wasn’t able to inflict any life-threatening injuries.
– how did he manage to confuse it for a four-legged fluffster?
Well, according to a report from the Sheriff's Office, it was all to do with the time of day.
- You see, the man had been walking around the Warm Mineral Springs Motel gardens just after midnight. When he noticed a dark figure moving among the bushes, he assumed it was a dog on a leash and so didn’t feel the need to move out of the way.
- The man managed to escape, but as he broke free from the grips of its jaw he said he felt it tearing a chunk out of his leg.
