Tom, glad you enjoyed the pictures, I thought you would.

Tommy is huge and I mean huge, the female looked tiny but of course she was being compared to a monterous size tomistoma.

I dont know there exact sizes because Sam nor Ken were there to give us the tour, but by eye I would put Tommy at a good 15ft maybe even 16ft (I thought he was very comparable in size to Utan the hybrid) and the female I would put at around 10ft.

I told my buddy about how your daughter used to swim around with Tommy, he was amazed. I know the albino gators at AA came from you, didnt all of there normal gators also come from you?
