Scientific Name: Alligator Mississippiensis
The American
Alligator is found in the southeastern part of the United States. These
alligators are both carnivores and fruit eaters and play an important part of
the wetland ecosystems and they help spread seeds of the fruits they eat. Alligators are very vocal reptiles, having
different calls for distress, declaring their territory, seeking a mate,
warning a competitor… This alligator was 5 years old and was small.
This was an American Alligator that was at the
Tulelake/Butte Valley Fair in Tulelake, California that Brad’s World of
Reptiles had on display to teach people about these animals. Their Facebook
