History:
Believe it or not, alligators actually have a fairly important economical role in the regions they’re endemic too. Besides being raised commercially for their meat and skin, they’re a large part of the ecotourism industry, especially in the southern United States. Tourists can take swamp tours, also known as swamp safaris, specifically designed to show off these amazing predators. Despite its large size and strong bite, we promise this alligator is rather amicable!
