Kaleb Langdale, 17, survived the encounter on Monday in Florida's Caloosahatchee River.
Wildlife officers who caught and killed the alligator retrieved the arm, but doctors were unable to
reattach it.
The teen was rushed to a Fort Myers hospital. His condition was not available early yesterday.
His friends told Fort Myers television station WBBH that while the arm could not be reattached,
Mr Langdale was in good spirits.
The alligator went straight for Mr Langdale as he was swimming, Matt Baker said.
Another friend said Mr Langdale popped out of the water shortly after being bitten.
Wildlife officials were investigating what caused the alligator to bite Mr Langdale.
