WATCH: Hunter spots massive 13-foot alligator roaming through woods
MACON, Ga. - A hunter in Georgia got a huge surprise – literally – when he was out looking for deer and came across a gigantic alligator strolling through the woods!
According to Georgia Outdoor News, the bowhunter spotted the 13-foot alligator stomping through the woods like a dinosaur in Macon County.
"It was just another afternoon in the climbing stand for a bowhunter in Macon County, Georgia. Then he hears something coming, and with anticipation he tightens his grip on his bow. Oh, but it was no deer," Georgia Outdoor News says in the YouTube video description. "Like a scene from Jurassic Park a huge alligator appears, lumbering through the pines before laying down in a corn pile."
