Fighting for life!!_DSC0652

This is the alligator and snake from the previous picture. At this point, the snake had stopped fighting to get away and was just riding on the back of the alligator. The alligator had moved around and at one point was growling at another slightly bigger gator that had come to investigate and possibly steal this meal. I believe that the snake was probably waiting for the gators mouth to open so it could escape. However the only time the gator would let loose the jaws it would immediately begin thrashing in the water. I noticed the reason it was thrashing was to get the head end of the snake into its open and hungry mouth.
