A road had to be closed in the US state of Florida. As common as the measure was as unusual as its cause: an alligator had thought of one thing: to make itself comfortable on asphalt.

A worker from the Conservation Agency Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission approached and pulled the troublemaker out of traffic, as can be seen from another police post.

The question remains, which is also being asked by the West Palm Beach police: “Why did the alligator cross the road?” But that will probably always remain the secret of the “unwary pedestrian”.
