I couldn't contribute much since I know so little about alligators except that which is commonly known - where they live, what color they are, big teeth (or is it a big mouth or big snout?), etcetera.
The nice thing about the conversation was that many of us were learning about something we knew not much about - and from a teacher who wasn't on the agenda to teach this morning.
The moral of this story is that each of us has a knowledge base to educate others - never miss a teachable moment when the opportunity arises.
No matter how seemingly inconsequential, the information imparted may come in handy sometime or somewhere to someone.
Now remember that the next time you're in a Florida swamp.
