The American alligator, also known as a gator, is a large reptile that can be found in the Southeastern United States and a small portion of northeastern Mexico. Adult male alligators can reach lengths of 11.2 to 15.1 ft and weigh up to 500 kg (1,100 lb), while females are smaller, measuring 8.5 to 9.8 ft in length. This species thrives in subtropical and tropical freshwater environments, including marshes and cypress swamps. One of its defining features is its broader snout, which has overlapping jaws and a darker coloration. In comparison to the American crocodile, which is only found in tropical and warm subtropical climates, the American alligator is less tolerant of saltwater but can withstand cooler temperatures.

This authentic American Alligator head has been professionally taxidermied and is now available for showcasing. As a CITES Appendix II classified species, the American alligator can be legally traded within the 50 US states or US territories, including their skins, parts, and skulls.
