A DeSoto Parish Sheriff’s Deputy had to capture a small alligator hanging out behind a truck stop in Louisiana earlier this week. 

The wrangling occurred at the Love’s at Chesapeake in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. 

According to the DeSoto Parish Sheriff’s Office, the alligator likely made its way to the truck stop after an excessive amount of rain and flooding in the area. 

“With all the flooding water and storms, even the gators are throwing in the towel and heading into town for a bite,” the Sheriff’s Office wrote in a post. “Shout out to Dy. Perot for capturing and safely rehoming this little prowler today. Located at Chesapeake nearby/behind the Love’s Truck Stop!”
