A large adult American alligator's weight and length is 800 pounds (360 kg) and 13 feet (4.0 m) long[citation needed], but can grow to 14.5 feet (4.4 m) long and weigh over 1,000 pounds (450 kg).[2] The largest ever recorded was found in Louisiana and measured 19 feet 2 inches (5.84 m).[3] The Chinese alligator is smaller, rarely exceeding 7 feet (2.1 m) in length. Alligators have an average of 75 teeth. Alligators are only native to the United States and China.
American alligators are found in the southeast United States: all of Florida and Louisiana, the southern parts of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, coastal South and North Carolina, Eastern Texas, the southeast corner of Oklahoma and the southern tip of Arkansas. According to the 2005 Scholastic Book of World Records, Louisiana is the state with the largest alligator population.[6] The majority of American alligators inhabit Florida and Louisiana, with over a million alligators in each state.

Pet of the Week: Amadu Abby, 5808920
Image by LollypopFarm
Abby is a 3-year-old female pit bull mix who weighs 55 pounds. She was returned to Lollypop Farm because her family was moving and did not take her along.
Abby is a friendly and energetic dog who likes people. She has lived with other dogs before and did well with them, but she does need to meet any dogs in the household to make sure they’ll get along.
Abby would do best with kids age 6+. She needs to be signed up for obedience training by her new adopter – we think she’ll do well, because she’s a smart girl!
