Alligators In New York City. Park maintenance staff noticed the gator sunday morning, and when removed, the animal was very lethargic and possibly cold shocked since it is native to warm, tropical climates, the parks department said. A 4ft alligator has been captured from a lake in a new york park.
Minor injuries were reported according to the buffalo fire department. This urban legend claims that alligators have been living underneath the bustling streets, having been flushed down toilets as unwanted pets and growing to monstrous sizes in the damp labyrinth below.
