Let’s Learn About Alligators! 🐊
Did you know that alligators are reptiles? That means they are cold-blooded, just like lizards and snakes! 🦎 This means they need to bask in the sun to warm up. ☀️ This happy gator looks like it’s ready for a party, but in real life, alligators can be found in swamps, marshes, and rivers.
This fun gator is holding a balloon! 🎈 Did you know that the word “alligator” comes from the Spanish word “el lagarto,” which means “the lizard”? Even though they look a bit like lizards, they are actually much more closely related to crocodiles! 🐊
Our party alligator has a spiky back, which is a very important feature for real alligators too! These spikes are called osteoderms, and they can help protect the alligator. 🛡️ They also help the alligator absorb heat from the sun. What a cool adaptation!
