This is a taxidermied alligator head. It is from a gator that was raised on a farm and harvested for the meat and hide. The head is a by-product which has been preserved and made into this unique gift. The actual size of the alligator from which it comes can be estimated accurately by measuring the distance from the nostril to the middle of the eye ridge. 1 inch equals 1 foot. So a 4 inch measurement from the top of the eye to the tip of the nostril means the head comes from a 4 foot alligator. These are small American alligator heads from 3 foot gators with clear and opaque glass eyes. These heads are approximately 5 inches to 6 inches. Alligators have between 74 and 80 teeth in their mouth at a time. As teeth wear down they are replaced. An alligator can go through 2,000 to 3,000 teeth in a lifetime. These are a great gift for gator football fans, tourists, reptile collectors, teachers, students, and collectors of unusual items. A taxidermy process cures the alligator skin and the alligator skull so it will be preserved for years.
