Even 4-metre alligators get the munchies…

If you were on the hunt for some new nightmare material to sink your teeth into, we’ve got just the thing. Footage has recently resurfaced of a monster-sized alligator in Florida gulping down unsuspecting ducks for a spot of morning tea.

The video was captured by Kevin Stipe and Cass Couey (owners of the PRO HUNT navigation app), who themselves were out duck hunting in Florida when they were outmanoeuvred by the almost 4-metre alligator, who kept snatching their ducks before they could retrieve them.

“Here we go, number 2 of the day,” a voice can be heard saying in the video as the alligator chews on his prey. “Ok, you’re fed, now get out of here!”

The viral video, which was originally posted in 2020, has racked up a crazy 13 million views, with many drawing comparisons to Jurassic Park. Thanks to the pair’s quick filming, this particularly hungry alligator will go down in the gator hall of fame, alongside other hot contenders like the two South Carolina alligators who were filmed having a colossal showdown on a golf course.

Lucky Stipe and Couey were unharmed, unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the ducks.
