Fig. 7. Scaling relationship between the mass and length of 51 alligators. Data were collected from individuals used in this study and from other sources (McIlhenny, 1935; Joanen and McNease, 1971; Dodson, 1975; Fish, 1984; Erickson et al., 2003). The dotted line shows the regression line (Eqn 15 in text), which was significant (R=0.99; P<0.001).
