In a video that's gone viral, an alligator in Florida illustrates why the giant reptiles shouldn't be messed with -- by forcing its way through the thick bars of a metal fence.
The clip, uploaded by WINK meteorologist Matt Devitt, shows the large gator approach the fence, push its head between two bars and bend them like they're butter. Although the video doesn't show it, Devitt says the gator "eventually got through."
Florida is home to more than 1.3 million alligators, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. They can be found in all of the state's 67 counties, per the commission.
