You don't need to visit a swamp to see a gator if you live in Coppell. Johnny Ahrens shared a video with NBC 5 of a big gator in his neighborhood. His daughter-in-law spotted it by the creek. At first, Johnny didn't believe her, but sure enough, there was a five to six-foot alligator!
If you're near Denton Creek in Coppell, stay away from the gator and don't feed it. Alligators are regulated, so they can't be removed without Texas Parks and Wildlife's permission. Stay safe, Coppell!
