“Would you like to add a large apex predator to your order?”
Normally, a “Florida Gator” in a Wendy’s parking lot means that a student from the University of Florida decided to grab a burger.
Not this time.
And it wasn’t anywhere close to Gainesville.
Wendy’s patrons in Lehigh Acres, Florida were frightened when a 6-foot alligator chased some pedestrians in the parking lot.
Lehigh Acres Fire Control and Rescue posted a video of the large reptile walking near a fence at the edge of a parking lot across the street from the Wendy’s.

The Lee County Sheriff’s Department joked that the gator might have been “hangry” and “looking for a cheeseburger” when wandering around in the parking lot scaring people.
GATOR CHASE?
Deputies responded to Lee Blvd today after this 6-ft gator chased pedestrians through a Wendy’s parking lot.
He may have just been “hangry” for a cheeseburger, but he gave many quite the scare!

Wildlife officials said the animal was likely just trying to go from one body of water to another with its journey across Lee Boulevard, local outlet WZVN-TV reported.

Some might say that this gator in a Wendy’s parking lot might be the most Florida thing that they’ve seen.
Nope.

Only in Florida would you see a large alligator just casually strolling through a Publix parking lot. These sightings are becoming more common as gator mating season gets underway??. This took place last Friday morning in North Fort Myers.? : Luke Vidal pic.twitter.com/wRELmLuGII
