Alligators are large, semi-aquatic carnivorous
reptiles with four legs and a huge tail. The tail
is half the animal's length; it helps propel the
alligator through the water, is used to make
pools of water during the dry seasons (gator
holes), is used as a weapon, and stores fat
that the alligator will use for nourishment
during the winter. Alligators are cold blooded
(ectothermic); they do not make their own
body heat. They gain body heat by basking in
the sun.
