‘They didn’t look into this at the academy’: Florida police check baby gator in pool

You’re looking at me from there,” the homeowner told officers on the scene. “That object must have crawled under the fence.” Hill and Jeffra assessed the situation, even though they considered using a litter box to remove the small critters before calling wildlife experts. “They didn’t consider this at the academy,” Hill said, also noting that this was his first alligator call.According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, alligators are Florida piscine wildlife.
