We found them in a bunch of Texas Illegals we bought several years ago.
I did an Illegal Of The Day on the ones we could ID.

This is all I could say about the alligator.
Here is one of the chips found with the MRE's.

The alligator came in several colors. I had GPI (Paulson) run a search for Michael R Edwards in their records. Came up with no purchases. They could not look for what was on the chip.
Another dead end. This one looks like a miss unless one of you Louisiana boys want to stop by the address in Shreveport.
