Massive Alligator Spotted Near Lake Charles Casino Area
Lake Charles, Louisiana - South Louisiana is known as Sportsman’s Paradise, and that’s because of its wildlife, swamps, and waterways. Alligators are a natural part of life here in Louisiana, especially near water, and sightings like this tend to happen more often during this time of year because of the warmer weather.
Alligators are common in Southwest Louisiana, but it’s not every day you see one walking across a road in town. That’s exactly what happened in Lake Charles near the Casino area. A MONSTER gator was spotted, and we've found a video of it!
