Giant gator invades Florida golf course in wild video

This isn't your typical day on the golf course. 

An enormous alligator was spotted making its way across the green at a golf course in Naples – and its appearance came as a total shock to those trying to get a game in at The TwinEagles Club, employee Dalton Mehrl told Storyful. 

The video, which was recorded on March 30, shows the big guy strolling through the course, interrupting a game and stealing the show. You can see players and staff alike trying to redirect the gator into the water using a golf cart, too. 

"I was working when I heard on the radio about a big gator on the first tee. It eventually moved towards the range and we had to guide it towards the water," Mehrl said.

While the video shows the gator successfully being guided into the water, it wasn't long until he made a return to the course. Mehrl said the alligator came back to the putting green the next day. "So we had to get it out of the way again," he added.
