I personally think it is related to environmental pesticides. Several commercial pesticides mimic estrogens, and have the tendency to shift the gender proportions of alligators in areas with contamination towards female. Probably see a similar shift in other crocodilians.
Nice sequence. More of AP person myself and not much of that.
