I want to know how you are getting the alligator. Why would they choose to stick with your character? After all gators are slated to know high speech naturally which means that they have intelligence. So why you the gator wish to follow your character and not stay in its natural habitat? How could it make the travel? Would it be forced to walk the whole way? If by boat then would it be likely to charter something with accommodations for the gator? How often does it need to feed or eat and how would that end up slowing down the process of getting up here? It is already cold now so is it still making the journey when it is meant to be hibernating? After all travel time needs to be taken into account. With that travel time there is also the speed of the gator to figure out, what pace do they keep and how far can they move before they must rest or feed? Consider the path that is taken, are there water sources for the gator along the way or do they not need water so badly that they can easily travel long distances without submerging themselves?
