Moving our American Alligators
Occasionally, the Phoenix Herpetological Sanctuary has opportunities to send wildlife to other zoos and facilities nationwide. This week we had the chance to send a few of our American Alligators along with some snakes both venomous and non-venomous.
This allows our facility to house more surrendered reptiles and provide adequate space to care for them.

    Breeders should think before they keep breeding some of these animals. Ie sulcata tortoises are way too readily bred. People buy them then realised they have bought have a living bulldozer. Animals should be bought for their entire lifetimes not until we get bored or realise they no longer fit into their lifestyles.

    Won't be the last caught there. Saltwater crocs are coming further south in the southern hemisphere too. it's getting warm enough further from the tropics for them, so they're moving into new habitats. It's what they do. It's why they've survived so long.

    There were no less than four living in a canal on Camp Williams, UT. I verified them myself. They were at most three or four years when I stopped seeing them, and they wintered over at least twice.

    As a Floridian who hunts alligators and sees them all the time, I can only imagine how terrified the worker was when Clem lunged at him. It is a problem most Americans never think about - there is serious danger to people who are hiking or backwoods camping because people have let loose dangerous, non-native animals into the wild. When you're in bear country, you know you are in bear country and take proper precautions. What you do not expect is to find a damned lion or other non-native predator in, say, the Blue Mountains.

    You would be surprised where crocs and alligators end up, even half way across the world you can find the odd gator that's been released as a pet (usaly before laws change to outlaw keeping a species) like back in the 70's / 80's. As for crocs, the saltwater ones move all around the pacific and end up in some strange places. I've heard about salties been spotted in New Zealand that had crossed the ocean from Australia... but they didn't service the cold.

    Reptiles, especially crocodilians, are nothing if not resilient. Alligators are very hardy animals that can live full long lives in the wild in bizarre circumstances. They can live with injuries such as birth deformities, missing limbs, and even complete blindness. They’ve also been known to survive being completely frozen in ice for weeks on end. Such is the case of wild alligators who were completely frozen in Oklahoma and only their snouts were visible above the frozen water in order for them to breathe despite not being able to move. They’re ancient animals that have survived for millions of years since the time of the dinosaurs and have remained virtually unchanged throughout history. It’s hard to believe we almost lost them less than 50 years ago forever, as they were listed as critically endangered due to habitat loss and overhunting during the 1960s and 1970s. If conservation efforts had not been put in place we would’ve lost them forever, I’m only 21 and I couldn’t imagine being born into a world without alligators. And just like any alligator, Clem is a survivor. Instead of the moist humid wetlands where he should’ve been, he was able to survive in the hot dry Arizona desert in a small pond with minimal food for nearly 20 years. Once again a testament to the resilience of crocodilians. I’m glad he’s now living his best life at PHS and has a girlfriend now and has made many little Clems that carry on his legacy in the education of these magnificent creatures. Alligators can live up to 100 years in captivity so I guarantee y’all have a lot more years left him. Thank y’all for saving him!

    I don't know if an alligator being thin is necessarily 'struggling' to survive in that climate. Lizards are just smaller in Arizona than they are in Florida. They have to adapt to their surroundings. I bet if he had his girlfriend out there, they'd have started spreading, actually. Just as a thinner than normal population.
