If you live in Florida, or coastal Virginia, Georgia and South Carolina, you probably know all about Alligators. If you live in tropical countries, you probably know about crocodiles. If we try to understand them, we can co-exist. They are the last ancestors of the large carnivores. Today, Florida is home to most Alligators, but they can also be found in coastal areas of some southeastern states.
Alligators have no known predators, except man.
Since man has existed we have harvested alligators for their meat, hides, skin, etc. These items fetch high prices to greedy profiters. I believe Alligators should live in peace. But that's almost impossible these days. The alligators habitat is shrinking because of development for money making establishments and the alligators are forced to seek refuge somewhere else.
