About the Alligator
American alligators live in the southeastern United States. Chinese alligators are found in the Yangtze River Basin. Alligators eat fish, small mammals, and birds. Alligators lay 15 to 80 eggs in a nest made from vegetation and mud. The eggs hatch in two to three months with the help of the heat from the decay of the nest.
The main difference between the alligator and the crocodile is the teeth. The alligator has a V shaped head and the crocodile has a U shaped head.
