HANAHAN, S.C. (AP) — No one seems to know why there's an orange alligator in a pond near Charleston.

Residents joke the gator used too much self-tanning lotion. Or maybe it's a fan of the Clemson Tigers, who are known for their orange colors.

Residents living near the pond in Hanahan say they've seen the orange or rust-colored alligator a number of times.

Photos show the 4- to 5-foot-long alligator on the banks of a retention pond at the Tanner Plantation neighborhood.

Jay Butfiloski with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources says the color may come from where the animal spent the winter, perhaps in a rusty steel culvert pipe.

Experts say the alligator will shed its skin and probably return to a normal shade soon.

That's the new breed of Desert Gator that will be sent to Dirtville to literally eat ISIS. They will also be equipped with "frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!!" They're gonna be YUGE!!

I'm wondering what sort of toxic chemicals are in that retention pond. Maybe some vet can run some tests on this critter... as long as they can do it without killing him. Ain't his fault he's Cheeto-colored.

I bet he voted for Trump.

Don't worry, once Trump dismantles the most corrupt government entity on the planet, the current version of the EPA, they will get back to doing what they should have been doing all along.

Ha! A veterinarian killing a TactiGator?? No chance of that happening. Their hides are up-armored to resist an AK-747 round at close range. And after being fed a steady diet of pork and black-pajama-clad jihadis snatched from around the world, they have a particularly nasty disposition.

And don't worry about the color. TactiGators can change their skin color at will to match any environment. From the deserts of Vietnam to the jungles of Syria - the TactiGator can blend into any environment.

Nope. if he was a Nazi, he would be in Florida. A lot more Jews to eat there.

Probably one of those Nazis planning to take over Cascadia. They were bred with chameleons so they could hide among the oranges being shipped up there from Florida.

Please, a regular old green Gator would stick out like a sore thumb in Cascadia, let alone an orange one! The only reptiles we have around here are harmless garter snakes and a few turtles (and turtle sightings are actually pretty rare around here)
