Ashton, The American Alligator!
Although feared as a predator, the American alligator is actually more of a game warden than a rogue hunter. The small ponds they create in wetlands act as refuges for aquatic organisms; their hunting of small mammals prevents overgrazing of marshlands; and they act as guards to the nesting sites of water birds by preventing predators from looting eggs. Like the American alligator, you are strong-willed and strong-muscled, a natural guardian with firm moral convictions, who defends and protects the places and people you care about.
