Since I've been away from MHB for a while I thought I'd inflict upon you these three riddles concerning alligators and their kin allegs.

Riddle 1: Why did the alleg get blamed for the murder of a woman?

Solution 1:
The alleg ate her.

Riddle 2: What do you call someone with ill will towards allegs?

Solution 2:
An alleg hater.

Riddle: What do you call someone who is afraid of a 10 foot long alligator?

Solution 3:
Rational!

Some discerning members here at MHB will probably say, in their most humble opinion, that these riddles suck. To these members all I can say is "Yes, yes they do."

Because he didn’t want to be a sitting duck!

A group of three of four mallards came to visit our street one morning. They hung around for half an hour or so before leaving.
 
Alligator pie, alligator pie,
If I don't get some I think I'm going to die.
Give away the green grass, give away the sky,
But don't give away my alligator pie.

Alligator stew, alligator stew,
If I don't get some I don't know what I'll do.
Give away my furry hat, give away my shoe,
But don't give away my alligator stew.

Alligator soup, alligator soup,
If I don't get some I think I'm going to droop.
Give away my hockey stick, give away my hoop,
But don't give away my alligator soup.
