Nothing screams "welcome to Florida" like an alligator, and this monstrous creature is no exception.

The alligator pictured above was shot at a farm outside of Okeechobee on Saturday, April 2, and is estimated to be at least 4.5 meters (15 feet) long. The alligator was so heavy, a tractor was required to move the creature off the farm.
