A typical drive to the store turned into a viral sensation for one Florida couple.
On Monday, Mallery Neptune and her husband Frentz Neptune were driving to Hobby Lobby when they came across an alligator being followed by three cranes.
"The way they had their wings out, it looked like they were getting territorial, like, ‘sir you are lost you need to get back to your pond,’" said Mallery.
In the video, the cranes were following close behind the gator as it was crossing the street. It didn't take long for the reptile to change its mind and return to the pond it came from.
"I think there’s more to this story they probably were protecting something," said Frentz.
As the video ends, you see the gator run fast back toward the water, finally escaping.
Mallery posted the video to her Facebook page, where it has been viewed more than one million times.
