Introducing My Alligators For The First Time!!!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 มิ.ย. 2024
- The wait is FINALLY OVER!!! Today we introduce Soni and Chompers, my two rescued American Alligators. Both alligators have been separated their entire lives due to their large size difference. Soni, our male alligator, is much larger at 10 feet. Chompers, our female, is smaller around 8 feet. She also has a really small head compared to Soni's MASSIVE one! For years they have been separated in the Alligator House by a barrier under the Alligator Bridge. Recently, we replaced the barrier with a GATE! (Check out that alligator video if you haven't already 😊) Tomorrow, we lift the gate and introduce them together for the FIRST TIME! I rescued both alligators at a very young age, and have had Soni for 18 years and Chompers for 15 years. These alligators are like my children, and to be honest I'm a little scared to introduce them. So I invited my friends, Savannah Boan and Danny from Gatorland Orlando and @gatorlandvlogs to come and help with the Alligator introduction. Savannah and Danny just introduced two Saltwater Crocodiles and things got a little CRAZY 😱 Will Chompers and Soni get along? Will there be an alligator fight? What happens if he hurts her? Or worse...tries to kill her? Watch as we make history in the Alligator House and introduce the two alligators for the very first time!!!!

Corbin’s reaction really reminded me of new dads watching their wives giving birth. Trying to be super supportive but also desperately trying not to pass out from anxiety.

Ya I was close!!!
It's ok it happens 😊
I knew they wouldn't kill another
Each other? @@mizattmt1911
Awww, Soni was a good boy during this from the looks of it, just sitting there and letting Chompers get used to him.
He loves his new girlfriend...or wife
@@corbinmaxey woah they just met
Nah bro they were meant to be
@@1Theguywhoasked did you see the shots of them swimming together at the end - they've been chatting through the old barrier for months.
I find it utterly sweet that Soni was PURRING at Chompers, he clearly adores her with that
Soni and Chompers: the best couple. So cute seeing them speak to each other!
They are the absolute BEST!
@@corbinmaxey love ur vids I love ur crocodile and alligator am a new fan too😊❤❤
@@Maayseriousthey are both alligators
@@corbinmaxeythey will soon have little baby alligators ❤️🥰🤗🐊
I don’t want them to be love I just want them to be friends
Never in my life I’ve been so invested in meeting alligators meeting💕🐊
Me neither! lol
@@corbinmaxey Sony and Chompers had segsy time.
@nixxie1691 Yaaasssssss!!!
Man, that hat lady was controlling the room 100%
You can tell that she is very experienced on the subject.
Every time there is some uncertainty, everyone looks towards her 😊
Actually Danny is more experienced & knowledgeable...Savannah just is more outgoing.
I was so stressed watching chompers try to go back to her side of the pool. I was getting sad and was yelling “just let her back in”! I understand though that has to happen. I am glad they became friends so quickly and seem to be very happy. What a success!!!
i was thinking that too until suddenly they were ALL over each other!
Omg you got to touch Soni on his head! Thats such a cherry on top to this incredible day!
Right?! Seriously the BEST DAY!
His purr is so gentle, soni is so cute. I'm happy you can now pet him safely, and Chompers is so cute, they both seem happy. Wonderful job Corbin!
Corbin is just like a girl dad when hus daughter started meeting a boy in being and after he is like a proud father like his daughter got her soulmate... That sooo... sweet.....
100% agree!~
Tf is girl dad means?
@@karakattankurai. Girl dad means the father of a girl.
Soni and chompers to meet! HERE WE GO!
FINALLY!!!
Yes! And they are so cute togheter,i have to admit,also seeing chompers smaller next to soni they are so so cute
I have been watching him his whole TH-cam career
Same

Same
Appreciate it!!!
Is it wrong that i've got tears in my eyes right now?!? So happy for this beautiful couple ❤❤❤ Corbin, You could NOT have planned this any better, bravo!!❤❤❤Thank you Danny & Savannah! Subscribing to Gatorland now!!❤❤❤
No!
Not wrong at all! It’s hard not to have happy tears!!! So thankful for Danny & Savannah from Gatorland!!!
Oh me too!
"Do not try this at home". My guy I don't got an alligator at home like u😂

Love kisses ❤❤❤
You’ve basically raised both of these alligators since they were babies. Yeah, I would be a little bit nervous about one of them hurting each other. They’re big animals they’re big reptiles. You’ve done a great job raising them. They’re absolutely gorgeous.🎉
It was so stressfull for me to watch, so i can only imagine how anxious Corbin might be..! So happy rhis happened
It was SO STRESSFUL in the beginning so grateful for Savannah and Danny
Yes sir! I was so excited to hear they’re joining. They’re the bestt
Im lucky that i was introduced to this channel just a month ago and i can witness this historic meet faster than most. Exciting!
I literally waited 2 years
Dude.... been couple of years for us...
Worth the wait.... what a union.
So happy you found us! Thank you for following our journey!
“Soni, what big smile you have…”
Soni: “gee! Why do you think that is?” (Gives a romantic growl while eyeing chompers)
The man is in love!
'The goal for introducing the alligators was to get both the alligators all of the space but we cant stop love' I think that line was intentional!
I'm not crying, it's my allergies! He is talking to her! How sweet, make pretty babies Chompers and Soni! ❤
Well, I didn’t think this introduction would make me cry, but I guess I’m just a sentimental old lady that loves animals. So happy for Corbin that he finally realized his dream of uniting the alligators. And I know he was so excited to finally touch Soni on the head. Thank you Savannah and Danny for helping with this project. I’m sure Idaho was a different environment compared to Florida. Thanks to everyone involved in this journey. I hope Soni and Chompers have a long happy life together. Love and hugs from Tennessee. 💕🐊
You aren't the only one! I was almost in tears too! Appreciate you for taking the time to watch this video!!!! Hugs from Idaho!
@@corbinmaxey You’re just so sweet. I’ve been looking forward to this video all week. I’m such a HUGE animal lover and I get so much joy and happiness from watching animal videos. I follow you, Gatorland, Kevin Richardson, and many more. Keep us updated on the love birds…or should I say love gators. 😉
Who knew we needed a box of tissues in order to watch this video? I sure didn't.
@@lorie4913 I didn’t think I’d cry, but I should have known. When animals are involved I cry easily. 😊
@@Debra.Justice When Corbin patted Soni on the head, I lost it.
Thank you to all brought this to "real life" only because I missed it.
It was awesome to see Savanah, Danny and the "Gate Keeper" there to help with the intricacies. Sorry for the gaps. My spell checker likes to do it.
Thank you for letting us be a part of such a special day!! It was great and equally great just watching you be so concerned and full of happiness and love for your little buddies!! ❤❤❤❤
So happy you enjoyed following along the journey! It means a lot to us 🐊 ❤️ 🐊
@@corbinmaxey what do you mean by submit? we're they fighting
@@glaxingsmoothsubmit doesn’t mean just for fighting specially in the animal kingdom most species has to go through this stage where one has to submit and become the alpha normally the male but can sometimes be the female again depending on the species
@@andyleeds202 why does being the alpha matter?
Soni has always been a gentle giant while Chompers the rather feisty one. They're a perfect match! 😍
That was super intense! I think we have all gotten used to their routines and personalities. But I shed a few tears when they were snuggling in the corner, ngl. They may have been waiting for this the whole time. We need more videos going forward!
The people from Gatorland are like the most southern people I've ever... heard
So funny
Savannah is from South Carolina that's where her accent comes from, not Florida lol
Their accents aren’t even that deep 😂
He never said she was from Florida lol, just that they're from Gatorland. You know, the park with loads of crocs and gators. Because they work there.@@GatorMike79
Finally it released !! I waited 3 years for the alligators to meet ❤
We have too!!!
Soni LOVES him some Chompers!!!!! Can’t stop love! 🥰
Im excited! That went WAY better than i thought it would. But they seem to enjoy one anothers company once they got used to one another. But there wasnt aggression, which is great. And they seem to enjoy, especially Soni, having a companion ❣️ so i look forward to videos of these two & their friendship blossoming, and being able to share their pond 🙏
Yes! There were moments it was a bit hairy in the beginning, but in the end, it all worked out!
AH-MAY-ZING-ZING-ZING!!! So many THANKS to Savannah and Danny for helping the helicopter dad to get through this experience! You are all tremendous people!
Couldn't have done it without them! - Helicopter Dad🚁
I don’t think I’ve ever been so anxious watching a video before. But I’m so happy they’re finally together!
It was so nerve racking being there!!!
CORBIN!!!!!!!! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I STARTED CRYING WHEN SONI AND CHOMPERS GOT REALLY COMFORTABLE WITH EACH OTHER AND WERE JUST THERE NEXT TO EACH OTHER WHILE SONI WAS BELLOWING!! Now THIS was most incredible TH-cam video I've ever seen!! Thank you for sharing this most amazing moment!! I can't wait to see more!! 🐊💜🐊💜😍😍😍😍
Savannah is such a ray of sunshine, it’s so nice to see how cheerful and passionate she is
Right? We love her and Danny!
This was like a fairy-tale, omg 😭 all I can say is that Corbin is simply amazing, such a wonderful, kind, compassionate and lovely human, his entire family are the same, thank you for making us a part of this very special occasion! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is one of the kindest comments I've read all morning! Thank you so much for this! It means a lot to us!!!! 🐊 ❤️ 🐊
I just started watching this account on TikTok yesterday and I’m so glad I found it. This was so heartwarming to watch! What a wonderful caregiver! Who would’ve thought I could feel this way about alligators❤
So excited!!!!! Gatorland Experts Savannha and Danny will make this video go viral 💜 Soni and Chompers deserve to meet 💜
Me too!I can't wait 😁😃

That was so beautiful to watch Soni and Chomppers together in the same place. God bless and hope to be able to see them one day.
It makes my heart so happy that they are finally together!
OMG OMG OMG. I never thought i would be so so excited for an love arrange kind of meeting for alligators. So so happy for soni and chompers and excited that I've been a part of this journey for a long time and finally got to stay to see the meeting. It was as exciting and anxious as it can be.
I can't help but tear up at the end. Thank you for sharing this lovely moment with us Corbin!!! They are beautiful
That is 100% the greatest moment, in TH-cam history ❤
Aww this is one of my favorite comments! Thank you!

That was the sweetest, softest bellow I've herd from a male alligator. It's beautiful ❤
THEY HAVE FINALLY MET
FINALLY have met! Thank god!
@@corbinmaxey It seemed definitely worth it in the video!
This had made me so happy! Ive been following these two for who knows how long, and it makes me exckted that these two lovebirds have finally been introduced!
I am so happy for soni and chompers. If they do breed I hope they have siccesfull breeding. I have been so excited to see them react to them seeing each other! Have a good day soni and chompers ❤❤❤
This Couldnt Have Gone Any Better! Looks Like Chompers and Soni Where In love when they where Seprated And Now they Showed there True Love Now that they are With Eatch other! Sending Love to Soni and Chompers!
This is honestly such a amazing thing to watch and witness. We are happy for you and the lovable scaley duo!
As a mommy of many fur babies (& a few turtles) I'm not gonna lie...my heart broke a little when Chompers was trying so hard to go back to her side. I understand why the gate had to be closed, it just hurt to see the distress.
Same here!!
Omg I'm so excited to watch Soni and choppers ro meet
soni and chompers really love each other! cant believe the week passed by so fast
Congratulations Corbin. I just want to say thank you for letting us see this special occasion. Its not something you see everyday. Hugs from Australia
That means a lot to me! thank you so much for watching! Ps. I LOVE Australia! One of my favorite places to visit!
Been waiting for this video for the longest. Being able to take care of 2 alligators on top of all the others you have. Bravo 👏🏼
Glad you enjoyed it!

@@corbinmaxey Yes! indeed!
I knew they'd be introduced some day but not...this soon! Wow!
Corbin I’m so happy it went so smoothly. They look so happy ❤soni was so gentle with you and your friends. And chompers. So great
My heart raced like I did cardio! Held my breath a few times and then tears 😭 this was amazing so happy for you Corbin ! Thanks for sharing it with us … so happy for the love birds 💞
Notifications are needed to be on for this momentous occasion
I am really excited to see Soni and chompers meet for the first time!!!!🐊🐊
Soni is such a gentleman He's very protective and proud an loving to Chompers Mean while Chompers is The best lady Soni every met they where met to be together!
OMG that was so sweet. He could tell she was scared so he came over to her and started talking to her and calmed her down. I don't think it could have went any better.
This might sound ridiculous to many but I could absolutely relate with how Corbin was feeling, introducing rabbits deffinitely feels a lot like introducing two alligators as I could see in this video, I'm not joking 😂 it brought back dark memories 😨😱
This doesn't sound ridiculous at all to me! They are like your babies! I get it!
The first several uneventful hours was a good sign. They are now finally together and getting along. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Feeding them will be the next challenge. 😬
I am so glad that went so well.
Onward and upwards for all of you.
They are the best.
I'm so happy that they met!! I've been waiting for this video forever! Lots of 💗from florida!!
Oh my gosh! I live in Australia and I’ll be asleep when it starts. Oh well, I’ll have something awesome to wake up to. I seriously am so excited for this!
Oh my baby gators, Corbin!! I couldn't blink and was holding my breath! Best video! Wow! Please keep us posted! Thank you gatorland people! You guys are so awesome! 🤯🤯🤯
I love these two so much and the fact that they’re in love makes me so happy. I was nervous like Corbin at first then I was excited and happy!! Great job Corbin!
I’ve have been watching Corbin for years and now he’s finally introduced them this is the best I’ve see in a long time very cool and I can’t stop watching it
I'm so happy to see this 😊 i have been watching their channel like more than a year now and can't wait for the future things. Thank you 😁
❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing that moment with us! Im so glad they love each other. Perfect ending! ❤❤
OMG this is so adorable. Who knew that 2 alligators could be this cute. Congratulations on them meeting and falling in ❤️.
So exited this will be amazing Corbin you must feel like a proud father of these 2 wonderfull gators
This is amazing!! Also Napoleon just watching the whole time 😂😂😂😂
Always! lol 😂
This was so fun to watch! I’m so glad you had all those helping hands, they really added to the atmosphere and this was a great watch 😊
O my goodness! That had me on edge! I’m so excited for them! Also it’s crazy to see the size difference when they are right next to each other
Yes let’s go I have been looking all week waiting for this such a good feeling I am about to pray that this goes good
You should create a live stream in the alligator house
That would be 🤩
We've thought of it!
Awe I think they loved each other so much thru the gate she was just nervous 💗 I can tell her was like don't be scared I love u lol ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was absolutely breathtaking to watch i was so scared that they didn’t work out but when he blowed the bubbles and the noise i knew it they i know it was a good choice 😍😍!! Im so happy it worked out for you ❤️
So exciting! I hope they do well together. Soni and Chompers, we are rooting for y'all!!!🐊🐊♥️🫶🏾
Yaaaaaa
They’re in love!!! 🐊❤️🐊
Well! Looks like I’m either not sleeping or I’m waking up crazy early
well for me its just after Lunch (Germany)
@@uhm111 it’s like 7 am for me but currently it’s 1 am and I normally don’t sleep til 3/4 am as I work later evenings
Why dont you watch the video of it later?@@ezrakyle23
Awww this is amazing!! I’m like you Corbin, I’m a helicopter parent so I was definitely feeling anxious about them meeting! I’m so happy that they got along and ended up loving each other!
Oh my goodness I almost cried his bellows and her reaction 😅so sweet!!! I’m so happy
It's so sweet!
OMG FINALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME THEY GET TO BE TOGETHER !@@
Wow, just Wow I can't belive how quick chompers has grown!
Oh my gosh this was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. So beautiful!!
Mother Nature wins again. Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment ❤
Me and my brother were waiting for soni and chopper to meet for a long time
Let Chompers go back to her side!! I’m scared for her.
I know! It's intense but we had to do that because if not, the introduction would have never happened!
Such an amazing moment for sure. They definitely seem happy together.
I love how the fish are also enjoying this experience just surrounding both of them, this was AMAZING!
Haha they had no problem going through the gate! The fish love it!
Heart rate is fast here too ♥️♥️
Yea it's so intense
Been an amazing journey. Happy for you Corbin! I can’t wait to see where everything goes from here.
We can't wait either! tons of things happening in the Alligator House!
So so so happy it went well! Been waiting for this to happen for a while and couldn’t have been more excited to see it all go well!!
