No. It is not a proper noun, a location, title, language, or course. Unless it is the name of television show, other form of media, or the first word in the sentence, no. Do not capitalize the word alligator.

The word alligator is a common noun. It does not need to be capitalized. However, if it is used as a proper noun phrase, then yes. For example, let's say a football team's nickname was The Alligator Biters, the nickname would be capitalized just like when writing The Cavs, The Steelers, The Redskins, etc.
