I took my pet alligator outside this past weekend for the first time this year and she went balistic on me. I guess the excitment from being out there caused some of her natural behavior to come out. Any one else had any problems with this?
She usually sleeps on my chest when I take naps and she is leash trained and knows some color training as well she had never bitten me before this.

Tasha,

With all do respect, it is an alligator. While some become tractable(for a crocodilian) they are still crocodilians and not 'pets' in the normal sense of the word.

Your alligator behaved like an alligator should behave.

There is nothing wrong with the animal.

Sincerely,
