[Now here's a sight you don't see every day, at the zoo or otherwise: a young boho-looking woman humming to herself and carrying a little baby alligator on her shoulder. The alligator seems perfectly content to perch there with its head tilted up to catch the sun's rays. They check out a few of the other animals together, but for the most part they are headed straight for the reptile exhibits. It seems only proper that the little one should get to spend some time with her own kind every now and then, after all.
The woman stops at the alligator exhibit and settles her friend on the railing so she can see better too.]
See, Rhiannon? You're gonna grow up to be big and strong like them!
[Improbably, the gator seems to respond to her, letting out a tiny series of grunts before nuzzling at her hand.]
