It's a Gator and it's some good eating.
I haven't tried any yet. But I was in Africa last year and tried some crocodile nuggets. Pretty good!Sep 9, 2021 12:47:37 #

Definitely a gator with those rounded jaws.
OK, thanks.

When we toured the Everglades https://www.nps.gov/ever/index.htm National Parks, the ranger told us the everglades are the only place in the USA you will see crocs and gators at the same time.
Certainly worth a visit. The boardwalks are fabulous for photographing the inhabitants.

Gator most likely, possibly a Cayman ( crock-sub species).....traditional crocks have very long and slender snouts,usually and I believe are found on African continent.
I am not an expert on those guys....sorry.

Yes, African. But there are some in Florida, fresh water, not like the Australian salties.

Most all Florida crocodiles live in brackish water so this is almost certainly a gator. The rounded snout confirms it. As an aside, gators do not stock or attack people as cross do. The few people bitten or injured by a gator almost always step on him. Nice picture.
