| Title: | GATORNOMICS: PROFITABLE AND SUSTAINABLE USE OF ALLIGATORS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES |
| Authors: | Heykoop, Jerry
Frechette, Darren L. |
| Issue Date: | 2001 |
| Abstract: | The American alligator is no longer an endangered species. Alligator farms and ranches are regulated by government agencies, which provide economic incentives to ensure sustainable use. The collection of eggs laid in the wild and the subsequent release of juveniles back into the wild foster a synergy between wild and captive populations, implying that successful regulation must keep producers profitable. Specific policies are assessed in terms of profitability and sustainable use. |
