Field Notes

Description:

This is an american alligator that I saw in the Flordia everglades. From head to tail this alligator was about 5ft long.

Habitat:

Alligators are only native to the united states and china.
They normally live in swampy areas such as the flordia everglades.

Notes:

This alligator was a great thing to see but at the same time I remebered how dangerous it can be.

Another Chinese Alligator (Alligator sinensis). Must have taken a side trip to China as well!
That must have been a fast trip from South Africa to Florida in 3 days.!!!
