[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a beautiful specimen of the American alligator. Adults males typically reach 4 to 4.5 metres (approximately 13 to 14.7 feet). The total number of teeth varies from 74 to 80! However, when left alone, alligators will stay away from humans and pose little threat.

Picture taken at Brazos Bend State Park, Needville, Texas.

An unusual POV of the American alligator, Edgar.
Very sharp details and good light.
Weren't you rather a bit too close?
I hope you had some protection from those amazing teeth.
TFS. : )
