That\u2019s exactly what happened this week, when TikTok user @rachhansonn posted a video of a particularly enormous specimen sauntering across a Florida golf course without a care in the world. And why should it worry? A few retirees coated in military-grade bug spray and SPF one billion are hardly a threat to its domain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.golfdigest.com\/story\/jon-rahm-caddie-put-100-acre-estate-on-the-market-for-14-million\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:REALTED: Jon Rahm&#039;s caddie has put his 100-acre (!) estate on the market for $14 MILLION (!!);elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;REALTED&quot;}\" class=\"link \">REALTED: Jon Rahm&#8217;s caddie has put his 100-acre (!) estate on the market for $14 MILLION (!!)<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cAlmost shat my pants,\u201d @rachhansonn wrote, \u201cbecause why is this a literal dinosaur gator?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The video of the seemingly prehistoric monster, which we should note was minding its own business and harming nothing or no one, quickly went viral, racking up over 434,000 likes on TikTok. Like we said, everybody, even the hardest of golf hardos, loves a gator video.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Male alligators can grow up to 15 feet length and weigh up to 1,000 pounds. This one looks like it\u2019s pushing the top end of both of those ranges and is, quite frankly, one of the biggest gators we\u2019ve ever seen on a golf course. Needless to say, if you come across one of these Absolute Units\u2122, make sure to let it play through. As much as we all love gator videos and golf fight videos, the last thing anyone wants to see is a gator golf fight video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Golf gator videos and golf fight videos have one thing in common: No matter how many times we&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":599928,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[261106,15226,261107,79,1153,201],"class_list":["post-599927","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wildlife","tag-gator-golf","tag-golf-course","tag-golf-fight","tag-science","tag-tiktok","tag-wildlife"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=599927"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599927\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/599928"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=599927"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=599927"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=599927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
