Witnessed the Alligator take and predate the Raccoon. There are separate observations for the two species. Gator was ~8 ft, and from start to when I left was ~25 minutes. The gator smashed the Raccoon several times, a swallowed sections, but even after 25 minutes was still carrying a portion in its mouth.

I had the impression - quite possibly wrong - that the harvestman was a bit awkward in its progess, maybe because of the unfolded chelicerae.
