[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am old but still would not know the difference between an alligator and a crocodile. Even on my Apple tablet they both have the same emoji!![/quote] It’s almost all alligators in the US. Crocodiles need warm year round temps and we don’t have in most of the US apart from very south Florida, where there are both alligators and crocodiles. I guess with climate change you might see crocodiles gradually moving further north though? But definitely not into the Carolinas because it would get too cool during the winter and spring. Alligators live in swamps, marshes, ponds, basically around standing water. Crocodiles can navigate through running water like rivers. Crocs are bigger and lighter colored, alligators are smaller (but still big!) and a dark gray/slightly green color. Crocs are aggressive and will go after anything, alligators won’t usually go after people especially adults but will go after pets and small animals if they get near one. [/quote]
