You can’t spell “graduation” without “gator.” A graduating McNeese State University student is shocking the internet with a senior photoshoot with a 14-foot alligator named Big Al — including one shot where she’s planting a smooch right on the gator’s snout, her face mere inches from its wide-open jaws.

Well fed, or recently doubled-dosed with Grampy’s Nerve Tonic.
At least it wasn’t a “French” gator.....
And pictures too, ought to try it sometime.
Even so the Seigfried and Roy incident shows one never knows and those two had worked with big cats for years.
She’s a cutie. Tasty, too, I’ll bet.
Why? Why would you smile at a crocodile?
Tabasco sauce?
Hahahahahahaha! Excellent!
