‘Had a few visitors this morning,’
A Florida homeowner shared a chilling encounter with two alligators who appeared at the front door of their home, captured on the family’s Ring camera.

One alligator stands on hind legs, peering through the door
In the video, one alligator stands on its hind legs near the front door, its snout inches from the camera.
The other lounges on the walkway, watching as its companion rings the doorbell.
After completing the task, the alligator drops back onto all fours, nearly hitting the door with its snout.
The pair briefly pauses, with one looking up at the door while the other remains still as a lookout.
In a bold move, the alligator reared up on its hind legs again, this time deliberately clawing at the door and the white walls around it. At one point, it even seemed to try opening the door, scratching at it with determination
The exact reason for their unusual behavior remains unclear, leaving viewers to speculate.

It’s terrifying, and I’m just grateful to be in any place with bad weather, as long as a gator isn’t ringing my doorbell. Another user wrote.,
Someone commented: Trying to scam a leg for supper lol
Florida alligator encounters continue to alarm locals
This unusual encounter isn’t the first time Florida residents have experienced unwanted reptilian visitors.
Earlier this month, a woman found a 7-foot-11 alligator in her kitchen.
The alligator entered through a front screen door while the homeowner was watching TV in the living room. She only realized the danger when she went to the front door and found the gator inside.
Previously, the alligator’s intrusion highlighted growing concerns in Florida
This latest incident is part of a worrying trend of alligators venturing into more populated areas in search of food or shelter.
As alligators become smarter and more daring, residents are increasingly concerned about their safety.
As the woman in Venice discovered, once the alligator was inside, the situation quickly escalated.
Local authorities and wildlife conservation officials eventually removed the unwanted guest from her kitchen.
