As a baby, the '''Alligator''' was kept as a pet by a [[Raccoon City]] resident before ending up in the sewers. When the [[t-Virus]] was released into the sewers, the creature became infected and adapted well to its effects, growing rapidly to over ten meters in length.

It made its first appearance in ''[[Resident Evil 2]]'' where [[Claire Redfield|Claire]] encounters it while trying to reunite with [[Sherry Birkin|Sherry]] in the Raccoon City sewers.

The Alligator reappears as a boss in [[Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles]]. In this scenario it is fought by both Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield. This version of the fight shows Leon and Claire at first attempting to kill it by igniting a leaking pipe valve. However this only badly burns it, forcing the duo to trick it into biting down on a gas canister that is promptly shot; the resulting explosion blowing its head apart similar to its fate in RE 2.
 
 
==Strategy==
 
'''Resident Evil 2'''
 
The Alligator can be defeated in Scenario A by simply shooting it (though the monster is really tough), causing it to eventually smash a hole in the wall and escape. A small amount of ammo will appear a little later on. If the Alligator is defeated this way in Scenario A, it will come back again in Scenario B. In this Scenario, shooting the monster until it collapses will finally kill the creature for good.
 
 
The other more economical method involves releasing an emergency gas canister which the Alligator promptly picks up in its mouth. When the canister is shot, it explodes, taking much of the Alligator's head with it. Defeating it this way means it can be killed with only one hand gun round. Also if the monster is killed this way in Scenario A, it will no longer come back in Scenario B.
 
 
'''Resident Evil Outbreak File #2'''
 
In ''Outbreak'' ''File #2,'' the only strategy is to just swim over the area where it lives. If you really need to shoot it, stay on the dry land but close to the water. Alligator eventually will swim to the edge and try to attack you on land. When it trys, just shoot it. It will take quite a few shells from the shotgun to take it down, but using the [[Hunting Rifle]] will kill it in two shots.

Alligators (アリゲーター arigētā?) have been known to be infected with the t-Virus, and a number of individual cases exist.

History

A number of alligators were infected during the Raccoon City Destruction Incident.

An alligator lived in the sewers underneath Raccoon City. This very large mutant grew from a baby which, like the urban legends, was flushed down the toilets, fulfilling the "sewer gator" myth. This alligator became a threat to a band of survivors moving through the sewers in search of a way to the NEST. It was killed when it bit into a fuel canister, and a well-targeted shot caused it to explode inside its mouth.

Another alligator residing in the Lakeside Area of the Raccoon Zoo was one of the main attractions until the virus outbreak occurred. The survivors who crossed the small lake had to deal with the monster while swimming across.

Yet two other alligators lived in the sewers of Sheena Island. Considering that the island was near Europe, these animals were probably transported as pets like the one in Raccoon's sewers.
