Alligators are moving on up and taking the summer to vacation wherever they want.

This little alligator was a big surprise to the area of Brainerd, Minnesota, because, well, alligators just don't normally hang out in Brainerd. Maybe it was looking for some Minnesota State Fair food.

The gator was found by biker Dan Fundingsland on the Paul Bunyan Trail, and now resides in Safari North Wildlife Park in Brainerd.
