Robot camera encounters alligator in Florida's storm drain

TL;DR Summary
A five-foot alligator was spotted roaming the sewage system of Oviedo, Florida, by the city's stormwater crew investigating a series of potholes. The footage was taken via a robot camera, which initially mistook the alligator's eyes for a toad. The alligator was seen lying semi-submerged in the sewer water before backing up as the robot approached. This comes after a 4-foot-long alligator was discovered in a lake in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, in February, which died due to animal abuse.
