Alligator sneaks up on friends fishing trip
For most people, fishing trips are all about taking it slow, spending time in nature and sipping on some yummy drinks while hoping to make a good catch.
However, things went slightly differently for a fishing group in Florida when they had a rather unexpected guest barge in on their fun time. This was no ordinary guest.
A group of friends were met by a massive alligator that sneaked up on them from the water. A video of the incident was initially shared on TikTok on Tuesday and garnered more than 25 million views.
Soon enough, the video went viral across social media platforms with viewers expressing shock and fear at what they were witnessing.
In the video, a woman was filming one of her friends with a fishing line in the water. They were apparently trying to spot the alligator they had seen previously in the shallow water.
As the group remained engrossed in their task, the alligator was seen approaching the area where the woman was standing, staring at her with an eerie calmness in its eyes.
The group were heard talking loudly in the video, which could have led to the alligator feeling agitated but did not come out of the water. – ndtv.com

Loose goat evades pursuing police in Georgia
Police in Georgia are hot on the trail of a ‘hoofed Houdini’ — an escaped goat spotted running loose in Duluth.
The Duluth Police Department said on social media that numerous calls came on Tuesday, reporting a loose goat ‘trotting’ on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard ‘like it had somewhere very important to be.’
“Officers responded and attempted to corral the hoofed Houdini as it made its way toward Albion Farm Road, where it hopped a few fences and outsmarted us by disappearing into backyards,” the post said.
Police suspect the goat might be the same animal seen running loose recently in Suwanee.
“Apparently, it had unfinished business in Duluth,” police wrote.
