Alligator snout is broad and rounded into a U-shape, while Crocodile species have narrower, V-shaped snouts. Crocodiles also have visible lower and upper teeth when their mouths are shut, unlike Alligators, whose lower teeth are hidden.
Both Alligators and Crocodiles are typically found in freshwater areas like swamps, rivers, streams, and lakes.
Crocodiles are generally considered to be more aggressive animals, while Alligators are not aggressive animals.
Alligators are usually dark gray, dark green, or black in color, while Crocodiles are lighter green, grayish brown, or tan.
