a full grown male alligator weighs as much as a bear. it really comes down to how close they are to water.

a full grown alligator's top speed on land is about 8mph - a bears is probably 20+

you can outrun the gator, but probably not the bear.

Imo though if you have to fight both the gator will give you the worse fight

for sure, if you take water out of the equation, I think the gator is a much less dangerous foe. - groiny Feb 17, 07:46 3
- If on land, an alligator. If in the water, there is no answer. -- nm -- Spawn Feb 17 '17, 10:25 -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 07:48 2
  - As in the great Shark vs Bear dilemma, home field advantage is everything. -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:50
  - not even in the water, just near enough to water to be dragged in. - groiny Feb 17, 07:49
