Alligators and crocodiles float with their bodies almost totally underwater.Only their nostrils,eyes,and part of their backs stick out.They look scary as they silently stalk their prey (animals they hunt and eat).
Alligators and crocodiles have long,powerful tails.They sometimes swat prey with their tails.They also use their tails to push prey into deeper water,where it is easier to attack.
The powerful jaws of crocodilians slam shut on small animals and crush their bones.They eat fish,frogs,snakes,turtles,birds,and mammals.Crocodiles sometimes attack humans.
