An enormous alligator was caught on camera taking a stroll through a Florida nature preserve

As a group of people spot the gator, you can see the massive reptile crossing a grass pathway before it walks back into a sea of bushes.

The Lakeland Police Department said in their Facebook post that the gator was filmed by resident Kim Joiner at the Circle B Bar Reserve, a wildlife sanctuary located near Lakeland in Polk County.

The video has already received 4,000 views on Facebook and more than 200 shares. Some users question if the video is real due to the gator’s massive size.
