A large alligator occupies the foreground, in side view. Behind it is a bridge and a sign saying "Okeechobee about 500 years old largest alligator in captivity." On the other side of its pond is a water bird in front of a pergola, with a bridge. The Los Angeles Alligator Farm was an attraction from 1907 to 1984, at this location until 1953, when it moved to Buena Park.
