Does the male gator only have the musk glands or both sexes do have them? Does it have anything to do with identifying the sex of the gator? Is the American gators only croc carrying them? I don’t see any glands on my spectacled caiman, dwarf caimans. What do the glands do? Make a scent that scare animals away just like skunk does that or breeding purpose???

I’ve been so busy with my new coming website that you guys will be enjoying it.
My girlfriend and I will drive to Raleigh, North Carolina tomorrow. I will be visiting the Super Croc (Sarcosuchus imperator) model/skull at the Raleigh museum. I am pretty excited to see Paul Sereno’s discovery. I will post pictures after I have it developed. Anyone here lives near Raleigh NC and would like to meet croc keeper/enthusiastic like me at the museum? E-Mail me at DocCrocodylidae@aol.com. I would need to know by tonight if anyone of you wants to meet up.
I’ll have lot of fun this weekend seeing the super croc and alligator adventure in Myrtle Beach. I’ll share my experience/adventure when I return home.
