'He's just loveable. He sleeps with me, steals my pillows, steals my blankets. He's just awesome,' Wally's owner Joie Henney said.
But the reptile isn't a wild beast: It's the emotional support animal of a Philadelphia man who runs several social media accounts documenting his loving relationship with Wally the alligator.
Henney told CNN that he acquired Wally six years ago. A longtime reptile rescuer who has worked with alligators for 30 years, Henney was contacted by a friend working in Florida.People are also reading… In Florida, so-called"nuisance alligators" must be either euthanized or transferred into captivity, he explained.
Their visit to the Love Park came after the odd pair visited Philadelphia to film a news segment, accompanied by his close friend Mary Johnson and her children, said Henney. Johnson helps film content for Wally's TikTok and Instagram, and her family is"super special to me," Henney added.
