The Pond Guy GatorDefender is a realistic life-sized floating alligator head that will effectivley keep away geese herons and other waterfowl. This floating alligator decoy moves naturally with the wind as it floats on the surface of the water and features life-like eyes that will flash in the light. Effective in areas where alligators do not live; the fear of alligators is instinctive not learned. The Pond Guy GatorDefender is durable and floats with a tie down loop for easy removal. Dimensions: 21"L x 8"W x 5.5"H

Very realistic looking. Great quality. Very happy with it. No more ducks in my pond!

Perfect for keeping the ducks out of the pool. My clever husband secured him with fishing line close to the first and second float on the pool sweep hose, he gently glides thru the water when the sweep is on and sits stealthily several feet into the pool when the sweep is off. This also helps keep him from being pushed into a corner or tangled in the sweep. So my small dogs wouldn’t freak out when they saw him floating in the pool, I put him on the floor in the den for a couple of days so they could acclimate themselves, haven’t had a single barking outburst from them.

We ordered this gator head a few weeks ago to prevent cranes from eating our fish. Unfortunately, 1 week later, I spotted a large crane in our pond near the alligator head, proving that it was not a good decoy for cranes. By the time I had gone outside to scare the bird away, I noticed that 9 of our 10 fish had been eaten, while the alligator head calmly floated in the pond. We decided to save our last fish by bringing it to a nearby aquarium. Although all of our fish are now gone, the alligator head still floats in the pond as nice decoration. I doubt that we will get any more fish.

We live in an area where iguanas are an invasive species, damaging to landscaping, and defecating in swimming pools.We purchased 2 of these for 2 separate locations in the same town, miles apart and they seem to be working, we've had them about 2 months now, and we no longer spot the iguanas in those areas. Hoping that continues... The croc decoy looks very realistic. Our dog was quite intrigued/disturbed by it for the first day, but that wore off.

We put the gator in our 20ft by 50ft, 8ft deep Connecticut private pond in the reeds at a shallow edge where it looked scary and cool for 3 weeks. Then one day gator was gone! No one stole or had access to the pond. It did not float to a different part of the pond. If it sank, it was not in the shallow area nearby. How could it sink if it was structurally sound? A friend theorized that a snapping turtle took a bite and gator went down. However, I have never seen such turtle in the pond and we have had two plastic duck decoys for years with no harm done. Puzzled.

The gator looks realistic, better in fact than others I have used. Seems to be effective as I have seen two herons fly over my pond and they kept going without stopping to check it out. However, either the design or the manufacturing technique did not take into consideration the center of gravity of the creature. He lists about 20 degrees to the port side! It is yet to be determined whether this flaw will hinder his effectiveness. Disappointing as I thought this guy was a bit pricier than other available options. I guess a really smart heron might eventually figure out something is really not right with this guy. But that said, I would no buy a boat from these people.

I literally bought this Alligator head because it was supposed to keep the ducks out of my pool! What a waste of money. They keep coming back and have even landed on the Alligator head!!!!!

I bought this head to try to RC it. I have purchased or been given several others but for various reasons (too lightweight, flimsy material). This one is molded from denser material and pretty well painted. I plan to partially hollow it out and attach amazing model boat that already has RC controls.
