Alligator

Due to their webbed feet, alligators swim very well, mainly using their tails to propel through the water. The webbed feet also help them to move through the mud of the wetlands. The alligator floats motionless in the water with only its eyes and nostrils exposed, waiting for a meal.

The White Alligator is rare... survival in the wild is difficult due to their white color it is not easy for them to hide from their enemies. The white gator has a skin condition called “leucism” (insufficient pigment, resulting in paleness)... this is what makes it white... it is not an albino.

Watch as an Alligator swims (MPG movie) through the swampy waters of Florida. See a Crocodile walk (MPG movie) on land.

...then there are others, like the Gavial whose nose is very long.
