An alligator spotted Thursday at the parking lot of the Port Isabel Detention Center was relocated, according to the South Padre Island Birding Nature & Alligator Sanctuary.
The 8’6” alligator was wrangled by the sanctuary’s gator rescue team and relocated to a “suitable” area.
“Part of our mission is to educate visitors about our local wildlife and encourage respectful coexistence with species of all kinds,” the sanctuary said in a news release. “We would like to remind everyone that it is always best to appreciate alligators from a distance and never feed wild alligators.”
