Alligator mississippiensis
About 2 feet long.
This gator was in a pond outside a resturaunt!
The fourth largest recorded alligator was found on Sanibel Island measuring nearly 17 feet long. I am under the impression that a few years ago the largest and most aggressive alligators were "removed" from the island because there were a few deaths related to attacks.
