There are many animals that native Palmetto State residents might see outside their homes. The most famous animal being the state animal of South Carolina, the white-tailed deer .However, for this one resident in a suburban neighborhood, they got more than they bargained for.
ABC News reported Gary Rogers, was walking his dog one day. When he suddenly looked over at his neighbor’s yard, he saw a large alligator walking through the yard. Shocked, he immediately took out his cell phone to capture the image to see what this alligator might do.
At one point, the alligator even tried to climb over the fence in his neighbor’s backyard to get into her pool. When that didn’t work, the neighbor saw the alligator saunter back over to the front yard right up to the front door. Then the alligator stood up on its hind legs and started to climb the door!
If we pause the video at 42 seconds, we see the alligator press his large U-shaped nose against the doorbell as if he wants to be let in. Lucky for the owner of this house, she was not home at the time!
The news later caught up with the owner of the house, who was at work during the incident. She showed how there were claw marks on the door where the alligator attempted to get in.
