MIAMI — Florida Keys Sheriff’s Office deputies are asking drivers to beware of crocodiles crossing the road at night.
Deputies released a photograph showing the dead reptile that deputies found Aug. 13 on Card Sound Road.
“Plenty of wildlife live in the area due to the Crocodile Lake National Wildlife Refuge,” a spokesperson for the department wrote.
Deputies suspect a driver struck and killed the crocodile. They are asking drivers to drive slowly in the area.
