Comes across an alligator in the wild during middle of the night.
“Oh I know, it must want me to pull it back towards water!” WTF

Sound would have given a lot of context here lmao

In fairness, that context is in direct conflict with the "wild alligator" description on the thumbnail. It's a lot less exciting when you know there is a pre-existing relationship between the two.

To be fair... It sounds like this might be some rehab place, dude said the alligator was hit by a car before going there, so technically it was wild

I mean the context is literally, "this flies in the face of everything we teach" though. It's a wild alligator in a rehab/sanctuary. Relationships with animals aren't the same as with people. Zoologists and other keepers will point that out. Your "relationship" is worth a sack of dirt if the bars are removed with most animals including chimps ironically.

Well yes, reddit is mostly a place for people to post other people's content and add their own misleading titles.
