Imagine walking between buildings at work and spotting a large alligator trying to clear a chain-link fence
That's what happened to one Manatee County employee this week.
Chris Hughes had just begun his shift at Manatee County's wastewater treatment facility when he saw a gator trying to make its way to some woods by going over a 6-foot-high fence topped by barbed wire.
"She started climbing, and I already the phone out and snapped three pictures," Hughes said.

Goodness! I didn't know alligators could climb like that. What else can they do that we don't know about?
Kind of scary in a way that even a fence like that can't necessarily contain them.

Yeah, soon they evolve thumbs, start building weapons, then they become self-aware and we are doomed.
