No es un mito, hay caimanes viviendo en las alcantarillas pluviales de Florida

Author Joe Winner

Lo sabía. Lo sabía absolutamente. Hay caimanes en nuestras alcantarillas pluviales de Florida. Un video de la ciudad floridana de Oviedeo, al este de Orlando, lo ha demostrado.

Cada vez que llevo a mi perro a pasear aquí en Estero , le enseño a hacer un amplio espacio alrededor de los desagües pluviales. Nuestra comunidad no tiene aceras, así que caminamos al costado de la carretera. Siempre le digo “cuidado con las Tortugas Ninja”, y ella se balancea alrededor del desagüe pluvial. Es gracioso que ahora lo haga sin preguntar. Bueno, no es el TMNT lo que estamos buscando, estoy buscando caimanes.

Según la administración de la ciudad de Oviedo, “el 5 de mayo, un equipo de Stormwater estaba en Lockwood Blvd cerca de Riverside para investigar una serie de baches que aparecieron en la carretera. El equipo tiene un robot, que es una cámara robótica de cuatro ruedas que puede entrar en las tuberías e investigar cualquier anomalía debajo de la carretera. Por lo general, sacan el robot para inspeccionar cuando hay posibles defectos en la carretera para ver si alguna tubería tiene fugas, grietas, defectos, etc. bajo tierra. ¡En la inspección del viernes, como verán en el video, se encontraron con un caimán de metro y medio!

Ese es un caimán de 5 pies que vive en una alcantarilla pluvial debajo de una comunidad. Y es por eso que no jugamos en las alcantarillas de Florida. Hay caimanes en las alcantarillas pluviales. Drew Barrymore lo supo allá por los años 80.

 

Southwest Florida City Named As The Best Place To Live In The US

I have lived in 4 cities in Florida and loved each of them differently. Tallahassee, Cape Coral, Fort Myers and now St. Petersburg. Which one did I like the best? I am loving St. Pete the most so far because there is a lot to do. None of the cities I lived in was named best place to live in the United States, but I did live near the one that is. And I did go to this Southwest Florida city  a lot.

Scholaroo compared 150 cities in the US in 9 different areas. Affordability, Crime levels, Leisure/Entertainment, Quality of life, Healthcare, Education, Employment, and Infrastructure. Can you guess which city in Florida was ranked number one for 2023? This particular Southwest Florida city was ranked last for affordability but #1 in Leisure & Entertainment and Healthcare. They held a major golf tournament shortly after Hurricane Ian. It’s also the home of the Pickleball Championships, and probably the best burger I’ve ever had in my life.

So even though housing and rent prices are screaming along to all time new highs, it still made number one. Still can’t guess? Below are the top 10 cities to live in the United States.

  • 10. Cambridge, Massachusetts

    Cambridge Ranked Number One In Education and Employment. Even though they are number 10 on the list, these are great reasons to move here.

  • 9. Leawood, Kansas

    Leawood Kansas has a high ranking when it comes to the Economy. According to this list they are #3 .

  • 8. Papillion, Nebraska

    Nebraska is in the top 10 for best healthcare. According to the research they are ranked #8.

  • 7. Madison, Mississippi

    My mom lives here and she loves it. Alpharetta is ranked #3 in the Economy.

  • 5. Portland, Maine

    I’ve been to Portland and it’s a very nice city. They have a high ranking in Leisure and entertainment. They come in at #4 in this category.
