    Clearly not an Alligator! I think this is Anolis carolinensis, but I'll wait for someone more certain to move it.

    Cyndy - Oh, I'm sorry I didn't see this message when you replied! The snout on the crocodile in this image is longer and pointier than an alligator's (especially visible in the bottom jaw of the closer croc). There are also more teeth visible on a crocodile than an alligator. In this case, the color is also a bit lighter than on most alligators.

    Katja Schulz commented on "Image":

    Bethany, I have made you a full curator, so you can now fix misidentifications by untrusting the original association and adding a new one with the correct taxon. You should see the curator tools for this in the right sidebar of the image data page. For detailed instructions, see Information for curators.
