Cape Coral, FL — Florida residents are accustomed to alligators getting out and stretching their legs this time of year. Sightings in residential neighborhoods, along busy streets and even on sandy beaches aren’t all that uncommon.

But it’s not every day that an alligator is spotted hanging out in a tree.




That, however, was the case Tuesday in Cape Coral.

It seems a man happened to look up into a tree when he noticed a gator hanging out on a limb. At first he thought it was an iguana, but a closer look revealed the truth.

The man, identified only as Ronald S., was so excited with the sighting, he shared a photo with Matt Devitt of WINK news, who posted it to Twitter.

Just how the alligator managed to wrangle itself onto its perch remains unknown. It’s doubtful a “Sharknado” tore through Cape Coral unnoticed on Tuesday, also picking up a stray gator along the way. Gators, however, aren’t beyond climbing to get where they want to go, often scaling fences to get to what’s on the other side.
