Gator’s and their sounds…

3 Categories: Photo-Journal •April 10, 2008

Hearing the sounds Alligators produce is an experience. I recently invited a 15ft Gator and his offsprings to a recording session, to bring these sounds to you.
Shown in the pic is Junior - a 6ft. 4 year old gator, trying himself in the art of bellowing. As you can see - the water is vibrating from the ultrasound waves.

Goodvibrations

And here are some sound samples.

A Gator bellowing: [audio:gatorbellow.mp3|autostart=no]
A Gator hissing: [audio:gatorhissing.mp3|autostart=no]
The calls of little Gators: [audio:lilgator.mp3|autostart=no]
Little Gators chatting: [audio:lilgator2.mp3|autostart=no]

3 Nods! Why not add you two cents? to “ Gator’s and their sounds… ”

    Awesome picture and sounds! I tried to comment on the beautiful misty one below, too, but it wouldn’t accept the code I typed in no matter how much I tried to make it work.
