An unexpected and somewhat humorous incident unfolded at the MacDill Air Force Base in Hillsborough County, Florida, when a 10-foot alligator decided to take a stroll onto the runway, positioning itself under the wheels of a parked plane.

 

Photos of the unexpected guest were shared on Facebook by the base. It shows the gator resting calmly between the wheels of a plane’s landing gear.

The incident, which occurred on a typical Monday, prompted a swift response from base personnel, who immediately contacted the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) for assistance.

 

Upon arrival at MacDill Air Force Base, FWC officials assessed the situation and quickly formulated a plan to safely relocate the gator. With expertise and caution, the alligator was carefully captured and transported to a more suitable environment, the nearby Hillsborough River.

 

The successful relocation was met with relief and appreciation from Base personnel, who expressed gratitude to FWC for their assistance.

 

In a lighthearted Facebook post following the incident. The base thanked FWC and humorously speculated about the influence of another well-known alligator named Elvis.

 

Elvis, a sizable gator, has been spotted on the base on several occasions. It was jokingly suggested as a possible reason for the gator’s unexpected journey onto the runway.

 

While encounters with wildlife, particularly alligators, are not uncommon in Florida. The incident at MacDill Air Force Base serves as a reminder of the importance of coexisting with these creatures.

 

Despite the momentary disruption, the situation was handled efficiently. There was no incident, allowing operations to resume smoothly at MacDill Air Force Base and leaving everyone with a memorable story to share.
