HOMEOWNERS say “goodbye” as a giant alligator calmly makes its way through a busy residential neighborhood.
The 10-foot-tall knobby monster stopped traffic as it crossed the street — before lying down on someone’s front lawn.
Several passersby were brave enough to take a quick photo or film the whopper between the houses on the Forest Glen Golf & Country Club estate in Naples, Florida.
The lecherous reptile is thought to have emerged from a nearby lake in pursuit of a mate.
Alligators are often seen in neighborhoods this time of year as they prepare for mating season in early April.
The terrifying beast was later captured by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and moved to a safer habitat.
No one was injured.
