They look unchanged, primitive, something so old it’s unnerving, but beautiful in their own way. Great pics.

Amazing prehistoric creatures. I don’t think I would get too close to one of those gators.

It’s interesting that even alligators seem to like to get out of the hot sun :-)

Amazing evolutionary masterpieces. You know you have something good when you don’t change from the time of the late Cretaceous and still kick butt.

Well put, my friend. And they are still able to inspire fear, even with their mouths closed.

Love that head shot!

Deceptively peaceful looking, isn’t he?
