American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) is refered as Common Alligator or simply Gator is a large reptile form South-Eastern United States. This is member of Alligatoridae family in order Crocodilia, which are large, semiaquatic and predatory reptiles. There are only two living species in the genus and other one is Chinese Alligator Alligator sinensis) which is Critically Endangered.
In Florida they are very common in most ponds and lakes. This one I have been observing in the same pond for almost an year now.
