I was right, here read:

Your recollection of the mnemonic (memory aid) is right. The way I've
heard it (with appropriate illustrations) was that an alligator -
which is notoriously hungry - always wants to eat the larger number.

3 < 8 Alligator wants to eat the 8, so 3 is less than 8

5 > 2 Alligator wants to eat the 5, so 5 is greater than 2

Dadd,
The symbols fall into the rule of the largest word. On the left is less-than, fork, port, red, etc., i.e. the smaller words. On the right is greater-than, knife, spoon, starboard, green, etc. i.e the larger words.
