Alligator crawls up to South Carolina home and attempts to ring the doorbell

Gary Rogers, a South Carolina resident was out walking his dog in his neighborhood of Foxbank Plantation when he came across an alligator prowling the area and crawling across the front yard of homes. He decided to record a video of the unusual visitor on his phone as the large reptile headed to a front porch. 

Rogers told local media: 'He was walking around in front of a couple of houses down in the cul-de-sac area. So we went down.'
Rogers' video shows the gator climbing up to homeowner Jamie Bailey's front door and attempting to ring the doorbell.

'I didn't know alligators could actually climb. And this alligator looked like he was really trying to make an attempt to get over the fence and into this woman's pool in the backyard' Rogers said.

Bailey who wasn't at home at the time said while the alligator may not have gotten in, it did leave its mark on her door.
'You can see where he was scratching all around the door here. And then there. And then you can see the scratches on the knob itself,' Bailey said as she pointed to the marks.

Rogers who recorded the video said the alligator wasn't a troublesome guest.
'The gator was not aggressive at all. He was just kind of trying to find his way out,' he told the television station. 

'I mean he was caught between fences, in between a couple of houses. Had no place to go. Went around the air conditioner a couple of times.'
