Bella is so darn cute! I never thought I’d say that about a creature that would happily eat me given the chance, but here we are! 😂❤
Gators can definitely be cute!
😂
💯
I have a question and since I’m already on here at the same time either of you are I live on the West Coast.
My question is if you were to get a salty - salt water crocodile (I’m assuming it would have to have its own pond away from the other crocs and the gators) I could be something wrong but anyway, my question is:
Would you have to use brackish water? Or is fresh water ok full time? 🐊🐊🐊
I agree. Big Mac and Bella make a beautiful couple top. She is all Sass and hé is all Frass Sass and frass.😊
I love how Bella always has her mouth open expecting food!!! Lol
Always!
Watching Bella slide down the side of the pond was so funny. She's so cute when she walks. You gotta get us some Poppy shots tho. I've been missing that little Prarie dog. ❤
Right, it made her seem a little less scary for the moment 😂
Bella sliding down the side of the pool 🐊weeeeeeeeeeee!😂
😂
I bet she'll be tired after walking around and a few attempts of climbing up that slope the hardest way possible 😂
She's a character but She's dangerous as dynamite 😂
Anyone watching this for the first time would be certain that Bella has to be the most dangerous animal Chris and Gabby have.....
But then there's Akila 😂
Even Akilas nightmares are scared of her...
I'm in the UK and still don't feel entirely safe from her 😂
Bella is such a silly, naughty girl sliding down the pool wall 🐊😁
😂
She is visible proof of everything that Chris advises.... DO NOT FEED wild Alligators.... Bella was terrified of Chris and Gabby 6 weeks ago and was stuck firmly to the bottom of the water.....
A week later She was happy to accept food from the long stick claw thing and swallow it under water, a week later She was hiding behind Big Mac but coming near the edge of the water.....
6 weeks on She doesn't care how many times she's pushed away, bitten by Big Mac or anything else....
Chris & Gabby now = food
If Chris and Gabby weren't professionals with vast behavioural knowledge and understanding of Alligators, they would be food in a heartbeat....
Please don't ever think that you can replicate what Chris does... it looks a piece of cake admittedly but he has the wealth of experience and expertise to keep himself and Gabby safe....
If anyone decides that they might give it a whirl then you are watching and not listening.... watching him makes it look easy.... failing to listen to him will cost you an arm or your life....
There's over 8 billion people on earth and I'd be astonished if you'd find 50 human beings out of 8 billion who regularly swim with Alligators.
Ace Ventura would be consumed with jealousy if he met Chris.
I've learned more about animals from Chris and Gabby since stumbling upon their channels than I ever would have even been interested to learn.
I'm from the UK, we have no dangerous wild animals here and it's terrifying to know that you have Alligators, pythons, bears, mountain lions, wolves and countless other animals that could end your life if you found yourself in the firing line of them....
I couldn't ever have identified an Alligator from a Crocodile, a Caimen or Gharial 6 months ago but this Gator Chris guy has turned me into a Crocodilian fanatic....
I can't get enough of them.... I'm basically a stalker of Crocodilian content ....
It makes me chuckle how I've ended up emotionally invested in dino eating something.
I'm all in with this stuff
I could watch Chris throwing chicken legs into Alligators mouths all day.
I'm dreading winter when they don't eat.
It's extremely selfish of them to get us hooked and then leave us us pining all winter like full blown Alligator junkies.
I trust Chris so much now that he could just make up anything about Alligators and I'll believe it....
I don't trust nobody but I'd trust that guy with my life....
He's as straight and genuine a human being as I've ever come across
0:57 "Big Mac!"
*Bella runs faster*🤣
Hazel puts the NUTS in hazelnuts
Chris, you’re not old. I’m 71 so I’m old. Bella is so naughty, but funny. My neighbor thinks I’m crazy because I love alligators and crocodiles, but I think they are adorable. They’ve got such cute faces and sweet eyes. I know they don’t like me and would kill me in a heartbeat, but I love apex predators. You and Gabby have a great Sunday. Hugs from Tennessee. 💕🐊
Bella is like Daisy. Always ready for food
This is the first time I've noticed that the prairie dogs have cute little ears.🥰
Bella is like the Terminator she DON'T stop haha I love her 💛❤🔥🐊🐊
I think Bella enjoyed the slide down the ramp as the water was filling!😊 She seems very intelligent. ❤
Such an awesome pop from Bella boo, me, my mom and my son went to Marietta today and had a blast looking for wildlife didn't see much but we still had a good time. Mac gets around really well for having a badly broken leg. Gators are so awesome. I wish I can cuddle with them but they would have me for dinner lol. Have an awesome day you 2
Here I sit coaxing Big Mac off the pool ledge too! It's amazing to me that I can find a alligator endearing! But I do!❤🐊💖
You're sooo patient with the animals, I love watching you handling....
Bella is hilarious, loved her sliding down the pond twice, I think she must have liked it 😂
Hazel looks like a bear cub when she's hanging on the enclosure 😂
😂
Bella the alligator is so cute 🥰😊❤
I love how Bella doesn’t come to you until you call Big Mac then she’s like oh wait up hooman lol! And how they both will wait mouth open to be tossed food and give you the look of cmon already hooman feed me !
And Big Mac is handsome alligator 🐊😊❤
Bella was so shy in the beginning now she's just a sweet swamp puppy that wants to bite your hand off. Thanks Chris for these videos two years ago I would've never seen Aligators as cute lol.
Omg when Bella slips😂. I love her. Sneaky Diva girl!!
aw Bella sliding down the side is too cute
At 73 I’m laughing at you, Chris! I haven’t been able to practice martial arts since I was 50 and became severely disabled after surviving bacterial meningitis. I practice in my head though and figure I could take one untrained person one on one. Yay me! Then I’d have to go to the hospital, lol. You are but a spring chicken. Love Asami…she’s so soft! Hazel climbing and screaming for food makes my day. Watermelon is food for the gods and porcupines! You and Gabby have one of the very few animal rescue channels I support. Your treatment of and respect fur the animals should be the legal standard nation wide.
Chunk Skunk/Asami is soooo cute ☺️
❤️🦨
Bella is truly the most adorable gator 🐊 love the way she slid down the “water slide”
Bella is not falling for it 😂
Well another day cleaning the pond and having fun with the alligators while cleaning the pond😊😮❤
The both of you look fantastic! 🤟💕
Let's get Chris to 1MIL SUBS so Big Mac the Gator can eat a BIG MAC Burger. I NEED THIS VIDEO!!! please like, sub and SHARE on all socials. Blessings!
😂
I wonder if Big Mac would actually eat it? Aries, the Nile/Cuban crocodile, wouldn’t eat a cooked lobster, but Miss Toothy did. Maybe Bella would eat the Big Mac instead?😂
Bella is quite the character! She makes me chuckle so much with her mannerisms, or rather, lack thereof! She almost has the antics of a baby bird that sits with its mouth gaping open constantly the moment a parent is nearby. I am thoroughly enthralled with Lil Dude and the Chunk Skunk, along with Dino, Big Mac and Bella. Always gain fascinating insights from watching these amazing videos, they truly are the highlight of my day and instead of sleeping in the middle of the night, I'll be watching more Bellowing Acres antics! ❤🦨🐖🐊🐢🦜🦃🦊
Just want to say thank you, Chris and Gabby for the amazing work you do and put so much work into sharing with all of us. You are an inspiration.
I’m also hissing here at home, when I hear the pump. Perfectly normal. ;)
Every time I watch your videos, I hear Hazel. She sounds like a screaming monkey.😂😂😂 I guess there is never a dull moment at the sanctuary.. I love it.. Oh, and Bella sliding down😂😂😂
That was a Million $ slide, literally belly laughed! That could be her thing! 😂
I love😊 the gator water slide😂
😅feed me, feed me now! Bella your a hoot😅😂❤
I didn’t know you had a built in gator slide in Bella and Big Mac’s pool! 😂
After watching Akila's short , Bella was relaxing 😅. Thank you for the vlogs 🙏
Chris, you're a young man still. Wish I was 37. Big pig Julie 🐖 makes noises like an alien film, not a pig, I laugh every time. 😂😂😂. Big Mac and Bella are looking so amazing now. Chris and Gabby should be proud of what they've achieved in such a short time.❤
Ya know, I think Bella likes sliding down the walls of the pond!
Bella and Daisy, just being good puppies of their respective species, getting the treats. Just watchout around Bella😅🥰
Meanwhile my Rocco is squawking/barking at whoever is squawking in the background.
They are so cute 🥰
I love everything you do. You inspire me everyday
Bella is like me, always wanting food lol ❤😂🐊
Bella sliding into the pond killed me 😂 Ps- absolutely love flecks of silver! 🔥
I adore Bella !She's such an irrepressible spirit ! I love her, relatively,long skinny legs and the way she plants her feet so deliberately !
In 1 facility in Spain,the Nile crocs have a waterslide, which they absolutely adore using.Perhaps Bella was either giving hints,or just trying one out ! She's so funny !As soon as the fresh water was in,she was there,sliding her way down into it with her splayed out ' star-feet' ! Such an amusing animal !
I'd love to have a t-shirt/sweatshirt/Hoodie with a photo of Bella walking towards the camera with her feet and legs in view ! There could be a witty saying relevant to her/her behaviour around the pic.Just saying.......!
After all her pool was cleaned,had new water and,all the hard work that Chris and Gabby have put in for her (and gorgeous Big Mac} ,when Chris speaks to her softly,she repays him by making a long, sustained,miffed hiss ! Charming !
Bella you make my day,thank you Chris and Gabby for showing everyone this sassy, hilarious alligator !😂🤣😂More power to your elbows !👍🏼🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🐊🐊🐊
I just love watching these videos. Y'all need a few Alpacas and giraffe's
You have the patience of a saint👏👏

Big Mac is the puppy of aligators, he's too cute. Though he says "bet I can" about eating Gabby.
Maybe a naked big mac? Just meat and bread?
Just like the bald eagles with DDT. It's also why you shouldn't eat too much seafood, as mercury builds up. It always blew their minds when I was teach environmental science at the uni, when we got to biomagnification, because it builds up So Fast.
Hazel just LOVES her food. She's like my crazy gilr, Muqi, who is complete insane but very happy, she's forever hunting invisible prey, or tearing around the house, or rubbing all over the couch cushions... and then she sprawls in the sun with her daughter.
ME TOO GABBY... I had PT yesterday and he beat me up something good!
I had to mention this but Bella looked so happy just sliding down to slide into the water
Hazel is very Basenji- like! ❤
🤣😂🤣😅😆🤣😂🙂☺️😗😁😂😂🤣😅 Oh Bella!!
Bella has certainly come out of her shell.
If she were human, what would her personality be like?
Always demanding to see the manager?
An aunty who sneaks you a glass of beer when your parents aren't looking?
A lady who tells the most outrageous jokes, at a funeral?
A granny who knits the best jumpers ever?
Awesome vlog Thank you Chris and Gabby all that training is absolutely working and working well done 🙌 Big Mac and Bella 🐊🐊❤❤ Love how well you guys care for the animals you guys are definitely the tops!! hope your enjoying your weekend
That girl has such a good POP
The gator water slide must be her favorite eh.
Bella slides 🛝 down it’s So darn cute🩷 Big mac and Bella they’re one of the cutest couple ever. I love the smily eyes of Big mac when he sees Chris.
It’s really impressive that you can film and safely handle alligators simultaneously 😮😮
I know you didn't think you'd keep the little piggies but they are adorable.
Bella is always there for food! I think she thinks her name is Bella Big Mac.😂 You came prepared with lots of treats. How long does it take to clean the pond? It's SO cool that they are coming to their names. Its really cool getting to see both of them out of the water to get a feel for their sizes. Bella is SO small compared to appropriately named Big Mac. Bella sliding back in to the pond...cute. Thanks for the question and answer. I enjoy learning facts about these animals. I'm sure some people new to the channel hear the screaming in the background and think it's some exotic bird, but it's most likely hazel! She is wild! Chris, I thought you were in your late 20's early 30's, so don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Thanks for the vlog!
Petunia knows how to savor his food!
Haha I was spot on about your age! (I probably just heard it in another video but I’m pretending I’m good at this)
Jonathan Bird (Blueworldtv) recently put out a video of swimming with an American crocodile in an cenote and the footage is beautiful! He was respectful/cautious and no over-sensationalism of danger. Just very beautiful shots of the croc basking and swimming.
I love Little Dude! I can sense Chris also finds him adorable! 😊
Such good listener's 🎉❤
Big Macs' reaction when you said "minnows" was fantastic. He really understood what you said...
Congrats on everything guys excited and happy for ya'll. I heard you can place copper pipes or pieces in water to cut back on algae growth. It may cause stains at higher levels. Don't know if it will affect crocodilians.
Could definitely tell who was holding the camera even if there was no audio when the shot of walking up to Hazel at the top of the cage came up. We see that shot regularly & it usually looks like it's at about the same height Hazel is but this go around, looked like Hazel was about 3 feet above it. Lol
Big Mac is slowly turning into a gentle giant. I am becoming more and more obsessed with Bella. Personally, I wouldn’t trust either, though. 😬
wow cool new species...The arboreal Fox 😂😂
LOVE the edit!!! 😂😅
😳🐊 That opening shot was EVERYTHING!!! And those close ups were just stellar !!❤.. Did Bella get a nose job?
1 Million subs between the two channels right?😅, I need that Big Mac eating a Big Mac video!🐊🍔
Hazel has a lot to say. ❤🦊
❤❤❤
second time the charm 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Btw …Bella And Big Mac are The Cutest couple. The B and B of whose Who in the Alligator World 😆
I don't use any other platform to watch your content, so I'm unsure how to ask those questions like you answered in the Q&A.
Do you have to inform FWC when you get a new crocodilian species or any other type of animal at the sanctuary? Also, do you have to inform FWC if one dies?
Just commenting for the algorithm. Hope all is well.
Uh oh! Somebody is ticked. 😅
Hello Chris, why dont you make a inclosser in the inclosser where you can keep the alligators/ Crocodiles when you clean the pools ( something that you can build in a few minutes and re-use) ? Greetings from the Netherlands 🐊🐹🐢
Chris, I have a question and since I’m never on here at the same time either of you are I live on the West Coast I am hoping you see This.
My question is if you were to get a salty - salt water crocodile (I’m assuming it would have to have its own pond away from the other crocs and the gators) I could be wrong but anyway, my question is:
Would you have to use brackish water? Or is fresh water ok full time? 🐊🐊🐊
her 7 year old daughter wants to know .... right !!!
We need more emu, chicken, turkey content.
FIRST!
Porcupines look like rabbits minus the spikes
Wonder if you built a water slide, would Bella slide down for fun?😅
how do you deal with all the mosquitos? Do insect repellents not work?
Como on Bella
I agree with the aging gracefully part, better to just own the changes that occur, so if I go bald I will rock the most ridiculous comb-overs ever seen. But yeah being almost 40 I personally find the effects of aging to not be quite as bad as I was led to believe as a kid, healing is slower but otherwise nothing feels much different so long as you use proper form for stuff.
Half the native brits have bought their hair and teeth on the cheap from Turkey 😂
I'm not gonna lie.... I'll probably be doing the same at some point 😂
Hi Chris and Gabby could i ask why douse Bella and big mack hold there mouth open when stood still and your not doing anything in front off them? Thanks
You're definitely not old when you're 37, but your hair is noticeably thinning. Maybe u should wear a cap to shield against harsh sunlight.
What happened to the other fox like jet.?
How can you tell.from a alligator from a crocodile
hi
How many Gators have eaten Gabby?
Wtf happened to Poppy? Inside meds?!!!
You’re in the millennial club, Chris 😊
