Habitat Management Population Parameters of American Alligators in the Gus Engeling Wildlife Management Area Dale F. Prochaska, Hayden Haucke, and James C. Cathey, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department In spite of their popularity and importance, surprisingly little is known about populations of American alligators ( Alligator mississippiensis ) in Texas, particularly about populations located within inland, forested areas. We have noted interesting characteristics of alligators in inland areas that appear distinct from the more studied coastal populations. For example, while alligators seem to be present in creeks and impoundments within their inland range, we suspect they occur at relatively low population densities, and may persist as isolated family groups. Consequently, populations of alligators in these areas are probably structured very differently, both demographically and genetically, from coastal alligator populations. Clearly, these differences need to be quantified and understood for proper management of alligators in different parts of their range. WADE A. RYDBERG

25. American Alligator, Wildlife Species Information: U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service Historically, alligators were depleted from many parts of their range as a resultof market But a combined effort by the US Fish and wildlife Service and state http://species.fws.gov/species_accounts/bio_alli.html

American alligator, ( Alligator mississippiensis The American alligator is a member of the crocodile family, whose members are living fossils from the Age of Reptiles, having survived on earth for 200 million years. However, the alligator can be distinguished from the crocodile by its head shape and color. The crocodile has a narrower snout, and unlike the alligator, has teeth in the lower jaw which are visible even when its mouth is shut. In addition, adult alligators are black, while crocodiles are brownish in color. Today, alligators are found throughout the Southeast, from the Carolinas to Texas and north to Arkansas. As during the Reptile Age, today alligators live in wetlands, and it is this vital habitat that holds the key to their continued long-term survival. Alligators depend on the wetlands and in some ways the wetlands depend on them. As predators at the top of the food chain, they help control numbers of rodents and other animals that might overtax the marshland vegetation. The alligator has a large, slightly rounded body, with thick limbs, a broad head, and a very powerful tail which it uses to propel itself through water. The tail accounts for half the alligator's length. While alligators move very quickly in water, they are generally slow-moving on land, although they can be quick for short distances.

American Alligator, Alligator mississippiensis Scientific name: The genus name, like the common name, comes from the Spanish el lagarto (the lizard). The species is named for Mississippi, the state and river system where it is common. Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Reptilia Order: crocodilia Family: Alligatoridae Size: This is the largest reptile in North America. Adults range from 1.8 - 4.9 m (6 - 16 ft). The record is 5.8 m (19 ft 2 in). Males grow larger than females. Color: The young are dark grey to black, striped with bright yellow which fades with age. Adult alligators are dark grey to black. Other things to look for: The snout is broad. The large fourth tooth is not visible when the mouth is closed. Courting and mating occur in the spring. Both sexes may be territorial. In the swamps and sloughs The American Alligator is carnivorous and will eat anything it can catch and swallow. This includes fish, amphibians, smaller alligators, snakes, waterfowl, raccoons, and wild pigs. This species occurs in a variety of habitats, from large rivers to swamps and marshes. It prefers shallow fresh water with shoreline vegetation and mud or sand banks. It often basks on the shore during the day, but will hunt both day and night. It also digs deep "'gator holes" that can serve as ecologically important refuges for aquatic organisms when the water is low.

Dogs Worldwide Making the Internet Work Welcome to the U ltimate S howcase for the C anine W orld Animal wildlife - Alligators in the Sewer By Donna F. Wilson Forget about alligators in the sewer, because one West Texas school found them on the practice field, shortly before school was scheduled to begin. Anyone who has followed the weather news knows that Texas has been inundated with floods, and it was this that led the alligators to come to a school in Dallas. Oh, they didn't come to eat. No, not at all, they came for the party of the decade. They were joined by such notables as poisonous snakes, bobcats, and others of the animal kingdom. The armadillos refused the invitation, saying "They had far too much on their plates." In recent years, Texas streets and suburbs have seen an outgrowth of animals wanting a home in the housing districts. Our on home, is a place of residence to a very snooty possum. As a result of late night visits, our cat's food bowl has been moved to the kitchen, so that the possum might make her own way in the world. We live three streets away from an open field, and it is not at all unusual to hear the cry of coyotes, or see scampering raccoons during the early morning hours. Life, such it is in the animal kingdom, has returned to the days of the Wild West. I'm waiting for the night when we hear the thundering of buffalo hooves coming down the street. Our town possesses the rare sightings of two red foxes, one white fox, and the creek-wandering mountain lion. Bobcats have for years come out of Post Oak creek to snatch the small prey, more abundant

www.eParks.org>> Marine Wildlife MARINE WILDLIFE American Alligator ... Make a Difference American Alligator Alligator Mississippiensis) Factoid: A member of the crocodile family, alligators are living fossils that can be traced back 230 million years. Status: First listed as an endangered species in 1967, the American alligator was removed from the endangered species list in 1987 after the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service pronounced a complete recovery of the species. Population: Once on the brink of extinction, well over a million alligators can be found today in Florida, Louisiana, Texas, and Georgia. Threats: Once hunted for their hides, alligators today are threatened mainly by habitat loss and encounters with people. Survival: Alligators can live 35 to 50 years in the wild. In captivity, 60 to 80 years. The American alligator is the largest reptile in North America. The alligator can be distinguished from the American crocodile by its short, rounded snout and black color. Adult alligators can reach up to 18 feet in length, although the average is 13 feet. An alligator's tail accounts for half of length. Male alligators, or bulls, are generally larger than females. On average, they weigh from 450 to 600 pounds.

40. Do Alligators Hibernate In Winter In Florida? wildlifewatching tour Snake bites and learning about snakes Alligator attacks arerare Butterfly-watching sites in the Florida Keys How fast can alligators run http://www.ecofloridamag.com/askeditor_cold_alligators.htm

Do Alligators Hibernate? Q: I have read that alligators hibernate. Is it cold enough in any part of Florida for them to do so? If, yes, where? During which months would they normally be expected to be inactive in those areas? I understand, of course, that mother nature can be fickle about such things as dates! Gretchen A: Alligators, like many reptiles, can slow down their metabolism and live off their fat for a while when it turns cold. But some experts would say this isn't true hibernation. Alligators, frogs and the like can apparently dig themselves a hole in the mud at the bottom or in the bank of a river, pond or lake, and slow or even completely stop their breathing (depending on the species), while trying to survive icy conditions. As you know, Gretchen, Florida doesn't usually experience below-freezing temperatures. But when the state does get a blast from the north, it's usually in the northern part of the state, and not for very long. There probably aren't too many "hibernating" alligators in Florida; they might slow down for a few weeks, depending on temperatures, north of Orlando. I have seen plenty of alligators in winter, and that's actually a good time to see them because water levels are typically lower and the cold-blooded gators are out to bask in the sunshine. Ask those who have been down Anhinga Trail at Everglades National Park in winter, and they are likely to tell you they saw lots of alligators, sometimes piled on top of one another to keep warm. What a sight!
