Oviedo, Florida – City employees conducting a routine inspection found a small alligator “just chillin’” inside a pipe under Lockwood Boulevard.

Using a remote-controlled camera to check for cracks and leaks, workers captured photos and video of the alligator strolling through the underground pipe.

The City of Oviedo shared the images on Facebook, saying, “You loved him the first time around and now he’s back! We did a routine check of the pipe under Lockwood Blvd and discovered our friend was back, just chillin. Also, the pipes are good. No leaks.”

The city had previously shared video of an alligator in the same pipe in 2023.

Officials said they are not sure if this is the same alligator from a few years ago but added that it is just as fun to watch.
