Alligator #0015 — BayouSelf Wildlife Archive

At 14 feet, Alligator #0015 is a giant by any measure — a fully mature American alligator at the peak of its size, photographed in the wild Louisiana wetlands. This is the kind of animal that stops you cold in the field. Massive, unhurried, and completely in command of its environment, this specimen represents decades of survival in the Atchafalaya Basin.

This is a multi-image entry — Alligator #0015 is documented across several high-resolution field photographs, offering collectors and researchers an exceptional multi-angle record of a truly rare large-bodied subject.

Part of the BayouSelf 1,000 Alligators Archive, a long-form documentary photography project dedicated to capturing one thousand individual wild alligators across Louisiana’s wetlands. Each image is a numbered field record — one creature, one moment, one truth of the bayou.
