WATCH: Worker slips while feeding 700-pound gator
MOSCA, Colo. (KKTV/Gray News) - Elvis, the 12-foot and 700-pound gator at Colorado Gator Farm, nearly made a meal out of a worker, KKTV reports.
Video shows the moments when the worker tries to toss Elvis a full turkey but slips. Suddenly, Elvis charges at the man.
Thankfully, the worker is fine.
Getting close to the animals as guests watch is their normal way of feeding them.
KKTV anchor Matt Kroschel was visiting when it happened and said the scene was “quite tense.”
While the Colorado Gator Farm is back open, it’s also still recovering from a fire earlier this year. A GoFundMe was created to help the farm with the cleanup and rebuilding process.
The Colorado Gator Farm rescues the animals in their facility.
