Young alligator abandoned in New Jersey heads for new life in Florida | CNN

The 3-foot long gator was found in a plastic container in an empty lot in Neptune, according to a Facebook post from the Monmouth County SPCA. The large reptiles, found in the wild in the Southeastern US, are illegal to keep as pets in New Jersey. A “good Samaritan” called in the wayward creature to the Monmouth County SPCA, according to the Facebook post. The shelter’s animal control unit brought the gator back to the shelter, where it was housed in a clean, climate-controlled tank.

” On Tuesday, the alligator was transferred to the New Jersey Department of Fish and Wildlife, who turned it over to the Cape May County Park and Zoo. The zoo is caring for the gator until it is transferred to the Florida alligator sanctuary.

'Wow, what a thoughtful gesture. Nothing says 'I care' like trapping an alligator in a plastic container and shipping it across the state.'

Like we here in FL need more? Bad enough we got all the wack jobs from all over the country, now we need their f*cking gators too?

So this gator will eat snakes turtles and fish for the rest of it's life? Any sad thoughts for them?

Who cares CNN 🙈🙈🙈🤟

Great. ANOTHER snowbird.

At first glance l thought this alligator was taking a ride down an escalator. 😂🤣
