The alligator mating/territorial display consists of males doing squats in the water and hurgling.

hear him hurgling

when I posted this video this morning it only had a few hundred views

now it has several thousand and all of the comments are “HEAR HIM HURGLING”

I’m sorry, YouTube user Johnny Patton

This sound is technically called a “bellow” and it’s pretty rare in captive gators. Most keepers are VERY excited when they get to hear a gator do this 🙂

What is a Bellow? Does it mean that the Gaters are happy?
