A Few tame Gators out there but wouldnt get one thinking that way I rescue alot of Gators some tame others would take your arm off, they a top predators and sould be respected I get alot of rescues from 14 years olds buying gators and pet shops selling them. If i had the space i would keep gators or lived in florida _________________ TEGUS TEGUS AND MORE TEGUS

The crocodilians always picked my curiosity. If they were GENERALLY tame, I would buy one right now. But what are the chances to get a tame alligator like this one? Almost impossible.
However, he is awesome! _________________ Ben3233

I love crocs too Love to work with them of all the species i would pick a gator over the rest because they have a more docile nature when compared to caimens my problem is pet shops selling them to 14 year olds and giving wrong info on them i ve kepted a couple gators but even i dont have means to keep them long term so all my rescues go to my friends in florida or LA Crocs rule _________________ TEGUS TEGUS AND MORE TEGUS

You need to think in its future size too and the state where you live, I know a friend from the US bought one in Florida and went back to its home and after 3 years it was huge and he was reported and taken away from him by the law. But if you already took care of every detail, it would be great to have one as tame as that. _________________ Did you say "tame"?

yes, that is the major problem. It's hard to keep a monster like this as a pet. But I guess that it would be fun to take care of one of those reptile in a zoo! _________________ Ben3233

The problem with keeping a bit reptile like that as a 'pet' is that at some point the husbandry gets compromised. It's unfortunate that Bubba died at a relatively young age for an alligator. I think he was 17
