The elderly woman, officials said, reportedly lived near the course and was seen falling into a pond at Boca Royale Golf and Country Club. The woman reportedly tried to get out of the lake before the alligators attacked her and pulled her under the surface of the water. The Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office and the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have vowed to capture the alligators responsible for the woman’s death as the investigation continues. The woman’s identity has not yet been released. Alligators have been found in increasingly unlikely places in the United States this year. An alligator was recently found swimming in a rather unlikely place: a lake in Wisconsin. On Wednesday, J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue, based in Menasha, Wisconsin, posted on Facebook about the 18- to 24-inch American alligator.

Last month, Midland County Sheriff’s Office officers responded to a call about a small American alligator found under a car at an RV park. Midland County is in the middle of the West Texas desert – nowhere near where alligators are usually found.
