Artist Bio:

Chucky is approximately 11 feet long and weighing in over 1,000 lbs. He is expected to be in his mid-forties.

Chucky caused quite the stir in 2004 after Hurricane Ivan after he "escaped" (floated out of) his enclosure at the zoo's old location, but thankfully, he was found safe and sound and had never left zoo property.

American alligators can be found in slow-moving freshwater rivers but also inhabit swamps, marshes, and lakes. Alligators are considered a keystone species because of their impact on their environment and the other species that call these areas home. These holes are left behind by the alligator and later fill with freshwater and are used by other species for breeding and drinking.
