For whatever reason, alligators/crocodiles still scare me. From a distance, or little ones, is fine for me though. We did have a young alligator for a while at the wildlife rehab center before he went down to a refuge. He was pretty funny. Grumpy little guy, made lots of funny noises. Crocodilian parental care is super cool though. Awesome animals in general, maybe some day I'll desensitize myself to being up closer to them.
