Legendary Alligator bug [Story progress 100%]

I have done the story 100%. But yet cannot see the legendary Alligator (bull gator) marker on the map nor can find it. After playing the "COUNTRY PURSUITS" mission the bull gator Icon/Marker does not appear on the map and still, after completing the story (and re-playing the "COUNTRY PURSUITS" mission once more) there is no marker on the map.

Visited the area (where most of the youtube videos and Reddit posts mention) in different day times, yet no sign of the clue to investigate and no sign of the gator.

Is it a bug? has anyone faced this problem?

I had the same problem a few days ago. Turns out that there was too much activity on the legendary area.

I suggest you go somewhere far and restart the game, wait some time or setup a camp (not nearby) and sleep.

Also, as @Matthew commented you must complete That's Murfree Country on Chapter 5, or it won't spawn.

That's the exact location where you'll find the Legendary Alligator (Bull Gator):

Why is the legendary alligator not spawning?

Why Isn't the Legendary Gator Spawning? The Legendary Bull Gator will NOT spawn or appear on your map until Chapter 6, specifically after you beat That's Murfree Country. So, if you haven't made it to Chapter 6 yet, this explains why the Legendary Alligator isn't spawning for you.

Can you hunt the legendary alligator before the mission?

This monster of a gator first appears in the story mission "Country Pursuits" in Chapter 4. However, the legendary Bullgator isn't available to hunt until after the mission "That's Murfree Country" in Chapter 5, but there are some things players need to know when facing this massive gator.

Can you hunt the legendary alligator in Chapter 2?

The first of these is the legendary bear, which cannot be hunted until after completing a mission in Chapter 2. Similar to the legendary bear, the legendary alligator will not show up until after players have completed Chapter 6 mission "That's Murfree Country."

How do you trigger the legendary alligator in RDR2?

Once you have arrived at your destination, you will be notified that you have entered 'legendary animal territory'. For here, enter detective mode by pressing down the left and right analog sticks. You should find clues that will lead you to the alligator's whereabouts.
