Or Alligator, from the name the Spanish explorers gave to the American Alligator; like this one that was killed by a hunter recently in Florida.
Giant Gator, Florida
That's a lot of Toni Lama's
Somehow I feel more comfortable with a few grizzly bears running around the woods than I would going fishing where something this size was hanging out. And I damn sure wouldn’t go sticking him with a spear, give me a freaking grenade launcher. I don’t even want to see a twitch out of his 13 foot, 800 lb. body!
The Florida state record for length is a 14 foot 5/8 inch male from Lake Monroe in Seminole County. The Florida record for weight is a 1,043 pound (13 feet 10 1/2 inches long) male from Orange Lake in Alachua County.

Shit that’s as big as some of the Nile crocs I saw in the Serengeti a few years back. Have to say though that its small in comparison to the monster Saltwater crocs found in Australia. Some grow to be over 6 m long and could swallow the mother in law without batting an eyelid.
