Default Alligator for landscaping

My brother in law is looking for a cement/resin alligator to put under his bushes behind his lanai. Does anyone know where they sell that type of thing?? Thanks in advance for your help.

Call nurseries around the Gainseville area, with UF, I'm sure a few of them will have one or two to choose from if not more. Go Gators! :-)

There's concrete yard ornament store up 441 in Leesburg. My grandkids just gave their Pop pop one from Amazon made out of a metal material that he is having fun moving around the yard. Even the nieghbors enjoy looking for it. We never admit how he moves.

It's concrete... Hand-Painted... We got the medium size... Very, Very, Very nice owner. We actually got a total of 3 concrete castings, all custom painted. You will not be able to decide when to stop buying.

P.S. Do not let the yard discourage you from stopping in. They are all raw unpainted castings.
