Translation: Please take him home.

Finally, one man tagged his friend and told him to take the alligator back to its home.


Be careful as you might encounter one in your area


Perhaps the alligator might have been bored with staying in the water, so he came up to find a new environment on land. In any case, we hope the numbers on the milestone have also fulfilled those netizens’ hopes of winning the lottery.

Although this news story created some amusement for netizens, we also find it worrying that some people have encountered an alligator on land recently as it could pose a serious danger if you don’t know how to deal with it. So keep an eye out and stay safe.
