[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 3777544, member: 7157"] The American alligator was removed from the Federal list of threatened and endangered species back in the 1980s, I believe. ODWC still lists it as a “species of greatest conservation need” due to its rarity in OK, but it’s numerous through the southern part of its range simply due to weather. Because of its similarity to the American crocodile, which is considerably less numerous and which does have Federal protection, the Federal gov’t does regulate trade in products made from alligators to prevent unscrupulous individuals from passing off crocodile products as coming from alligators.
