Just thought I would mention that captive ALs are only tame if handled. I only ever handle mine when cleaning their cage, and boy are they aggressive! While holding them, they defecate on my hand, try to bite me, and squirm around a lot. They almost seem more aggressive than lizards caught out in the wild haha. I don't mind them being that way though, since I don't keep Alligator Lizards for their kindness (or lack of) anyway. I like to see them in their normal behavior.
