Chubbs the gator is back, everyone.
The massive 15-foot alligator first made a name for himself when he casually strolled through Buffalo Creek Golf Course in Palmetto, Florida in 2016. In a viral video, Chubbs ambles through the green fields, unbothered by the audibly freaked out course patrons.
He was spotted roaming the green again this year. In a video posted to Facebook on Saturday, Chubbs appears to be just as unbothered as the last time he was spotted. Somehow looking even chubbier, the absolute unit of a beast trudged through the field until he found a comfortable patch of grass for a midday sploot.
Hey, Chubbs just needed a nap. We’ve all been there.
Ken Powell, the course’s general manager, says Chubbs is “not a nuisance.”
“He doesn’t hurt anybody,” Powell told Fox 13 in 2016 after Chubbs was originally seen surveying his kingdom. “He’s got a giant reservoir to go to.”
The gargantuan reptile likes to quietly take walks in the sun. According to the Bradenton Herald, Chubbs is “arguably a local celebrity.”
That doesn’t mean he’s friendly, though — Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission recommends against feeding him.
