The rugged hides of alligators are used to make some of the most expensive leather products in the world. Consumers buy alligator products that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars each. The cut-out squares are used to produce covers for electrical devices like phones and tablets, wallets, and glass cases. Although various methods are used to stun and kill the animal before their skin is taken, none of the methods can be described as humane. Some involve the severing of the spinal cord, and others include skinning the animals while they are still alive.
