[XxComablackxX1937]

The closest i am going to get to see a live T-Rex.... for now anyways an I love it.

[OswaldsNightingale]

LMAO so the alligator that growled at Sergeant Doakes in S2 E11 Of Dexter was HITTING on him!!! lol Doakes just walks away.. hmmm.. but if this is a mating call, I think it works... I feel like responding.. *purrrrrr*

[bubbagumpshrimp14]

@montivistaman a gator has a rounded snout and reach 19 to 20 ft long but that takes well over 100 years and do not get as big as a croc and a croc has a pointed snout and has been known to reach 28 ft long and a caiman is part of the crocadilian family but is a much smaller breed, i only know this cuz i hunt gators and i love em and i own a caiman haha

[scarywinkoproductios]

its a monster :S

[TiggerRah]

Sounds like a flipping dinosaur!

[springfairy556]

He's cute.XD 

[teamPoland19]

dude it almost looks fake

[AnipalInfo]

I remember hearing alligators when I lived along a bayou in Florida. But, I sure did not go out looking for them so I didn't know they arched their backs like that. Might have made a cool video but, I'm not that brave.

[Cora452]

Grr I always get crocs and Aligators confused cuz I coulda swon this was a croc :( It's so hard to be blonde :'(

[KlausDigestive]

Its true. It is a mating call. They show how strong they are, by pushing themself up over the water. And when they are growling, they are actually not very dangerous. You could actually stand in the middle of 12 alligators while they were growling, without being attacked, unless they felt very threatend.

[rovibe]

@KlausDigestive -- I'll let you try it first...

[47lionking]

sound like a t rex

[staleserenity]

The roar for T Rex from Jurassic Park was created using the bellow from a baby elephant, the growl of a crocodile and the roar of a lion. That's why the sound is familiar.  :)

[Bernler75]

Well... These reptiles are the closest you can get to dinosaurs these days :)

[hippocampuszosterae]

@Bernler75 ... Besides birds of course

[quj0r]

@Bernler75 Birds are dinosaurs. ;)

[Bernler75]

@quj0r

Yes, they are!

But they're covered in feathers. Reptiles, like dinosaurs, wasn't covered in either feathers nor hair, just thick and rough skin which is used to 'absorb' the sunlight since reptiles are cold-blooded organisms :P

[quj0r]

@Bernler75 Many of the Coelurosaurian theropods (of which birds, Tyrannosaurs, and Velociraptor are members) were covered in feathers. As far as that goes, I believe about 2.5 years ago there was a feathered Ornithischian (Triceratops, Stegosaurus, etc.) discovered in China.

As far as dinosaurs being ectothermic, that gets trickier. Early members might have been, but growth curves for T. rex show that it grew in a similar fashion to mammals and modern birds. =)

[skullythebloger]

its purple

its a reptile

and it sound like a retard

one more hint

sound lake carny

[Naoocotzo]

Holy crud! That's an American alligator? I've seen crocodiles that big but not alligators.

[hgryphon]

Gators can get pretty big!

[rudyf2387]

damn shits scary

i cant believe female alligators get turned on with that scary sound!!!

[peel432]

@rudyf2387

Female humans get turned on by grotesquely and unnaturally large masses of muscle on men. Is that much better?

[loekust]

@peel432

unnatural? maybe if they use steroids... i don't think many people are turned on by that... but natural muscles, sure

[OswaldsNightingale]

@peel432 Nah.... Men have ulterior motives.. most animals just wanna f**k.. ;)

[michealjacksonfan21]

[loudNproud34]

Im working in a state park in south alabama and the park ranger told me that this is a mating call.

[bawk7798]

Yes, it is. This vidoe was taken at the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park in Homosass, FL

[goodluckpeace44]

you think if i jump in to a river and did this i can get sex with fmale aligators?

[jamcrane3]

Well maybe, except Mr. Big Bull Alligator is going to come see who's stompin' on his territory, and he's not going to have screwing on his mind.

[goodluckpeace44]

yeah i guess we have to share

[GTVmmm1]

I wish

[esb84]

Yeah I think so, you should try it!!

[goodluckpeace44]

are you a female alligator?

[esb84]

No but Im friends with one and she says its ok.

[goodluckpeace44]

does she have a blue tail with green fings?

[Cjohnsonmyer014]

@bawk7798 I love how Wild Turkey puts in his sound at 0:02. :-)

[Babbyg07]

@loudNproud34 It can be used as a mating call and a territory call against another male
