Gator Shows up at Florida Home in 'Jurassic Park'-Like Moment
- On Sunday, May 11, 2025, visitors to the Everglades' Shark Valley area observed an adult alligator consuming a baby alligator.
- This incident took place during the period from March to June when male alligators exhibit increased aggression, coinciding with their breeding cycle, and overall alligator activity rises due to Florida's warm climate.
- Larger alligators often prey on smaller ones, posing a significant threat to juvenile survival, and adult alligators themselves may also experience cannibalism or territorial behavior.
- Kelly Alvarez captured the event on video, while the tour guide humorously referred to it as a "National Geographic moment," commenting that such behavior occurs when young alligators misbehave.
- Wildlife experts note that in poor conditions like drought, alligator mothers may eat their young, and such behavior reflects natural survival instincts rather than abnormality.
