Tommy, pig farmers like to say they use every bit of the pig but the squeal. I don't expect to be in a position where I ever need to use every bit of the 'gator but the hiss, but I'd appreciate if someone like you who does know what an alligator is used for would educate the rest of us as to what you can do with which parts of the 'gator, and how you go about turning a dead alligator into useful parts.
