In the foreground, the American Alligator, a common site across all of Florida’s 67 counties. The viewer’s eye begins at the Alligator’s tail and travels up over the reptile’s head directly towards The Wrangler. He stands boldly ready for battle, lasso in hand and eye to eye with the apex predator. His defined masculinity, tattoos, clear skin and piercing eyes- challenge our perceived stereotypes of the character’s role.
