Primarily found in the southeastern USA, these reptiles are well-adapted to both water and land habitats. Characterized by their powerful tails, armored bodies with bony plates, and formidable jaws, alligators play a crucial role in their ecosystems as apex predators. Their nesting behavior is unique; mothers fiercely protect their nests and young from predators. Interestingly, the temperature of the nest determines the sex of the offspring, with warmer temperatures favoring males. Conservation efforts have brought them back from the brink of extinction, showcasing a successful story of environmental restoration.
