Description
American Alligator lurking in the shadows at Sydney Taronga Zoo.
While alligators move very quickly in water, they are generally slow-moving on land. They can, however, move quickly for short distances.
An estimated 5 million American alligators are spread out across the southeastern United States. Roughly 1.25 million alligators live in the state of Florida.
Large male alligators are solitary, territorial animals. The largest males and females will defend prime territory. Smaller alligators can often be found in large numbers in close proximity to each other, because smaller alligators have a higher tolerance of other alligators within a similar size class.
