Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

If you mean indigenous, then yes. It is a native of Florida, but it's range extends through Mexico (still N.A.), Central and South America, and the West Indies.
It is currently designated as endangered over it's entire range.

I seem to remember at one time
it was vague on sightings in the USA. But in the years after the treaty passing there was a come back. in some field guides it is listed of sightings and living on parts of the Keys but I have heard of it being now found in areas of LA and maybe the other extreme parts of several states. Weather wise though, I don't know if the sightings are of established populations of the other states compared to the Keys and La...........I mean southern Miss. and Ala. can get fairly cool in winter. I know , I know that the American gator can withstand very cool and even down right cold for awhile but I think the croc is a different story.......
