Trapper struggles to pull gator from storm drain in Florida

OLDSMAR, FLORIDA — Nothing to see here: just a huge alligator stuck in a storm drain.

John Ruel of Oldsmar, Florida posted a video to Facebook of this wildlife trapper struggling to pull a gigantic alligator out of a manhole on Monday.

According to ABC Action News, the gator tried to get out of the sewer from a street drain but got itself stuck.

The trapper had to actually push the gator back into the sewer and was eventually able to drag it up through the manhole by its tail. 

Awww, Florida.

Don't you hate it when someone wakes you up early from your nap? Well this alligator from Florida just can't catch a break! John Ruel says he shot the video while he was walking his dog and that the gator was about 9 feet long.
