I was so happy to get a shot of an alligator with its mouth open! Most times when they open their mouth like this, it is to regulate their body temperature. Taken at Lettuce Lake Park 11/13/15.
The teeth are much smaller than those of a crocodile but still enough to bite off an arm! Very good close-up Alex. I see a slight smile here I think :)
Alex, sorry my friend, but after the blatant and barbaric attack on the civilized society in Paris last night, I'm still confused and not able to provide you with a proper comment now. Hope you'll understand.
My thoughts and prayers are with relatives and friends of those who have been killed or injured in this terrible attack.

That's a nice one Alex - hope this shot is cropped because it looks as if you are standing too close to the gator - he's got a nice set of teeth and looks very content - Great Capture!!!!!!!
Good grief, Alex, I would think he is opening his mouth to latch onto Your body for lunch. These guys are frightening and You seem to frolic with them on a regular basis.
