I saw that written on a rock.
I do not want to be in the water or close by at the same time with ether one looking like I am dinner :shock: :shock:
Never had the opportunity to eat crocodile but...why not.
Battered and deep fried, served with a nice molasses-based Bar-B-Q sauce and some tater-salad.
At a glance alligators and crocs are distinguished by the crocs having the fourth lower tooth (a large one) visible when the mouth is closed. There are other differences in anatomy but they can be difficult for those unfamiliar to sort out and differentiate.
Only two are found in the US, the American alligator and the American crocodile, the alligator being largely found in freshwater and the crocodile largely found in brackish water or salt water. That does not hold true for most of the species of crocs.
They don't taste like chicken, they taste like frog legs.

We have enough gun laws, what we need is IDIOT control.
Blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family.
I thought getting old would take longer. :shock:
When I worked at Kennedy Space Center, alligators were a serious problem. Several lived in or constantly moved into various ponds also frequented by people - with the usual result that idiots would toss them food. The inevitable result when a person ran out of tossable food was that the 'gator would come out of the water to get more - sometimes very fast. When I left, nobody had yet been killed, but not for lack of effort on the part of the 'gators.
Actually their lineage predates the dinosaurs. The descendants of the dinosaurs are birds.
Yep frog legs. Corn or flour batter and a little salt and pepper all that is needed. Don't need to ruin flavor with other accoutrements.
That's a myth. The most athletic of alligators (in age and size) tops out at about 20 MPH for a very very short distance.
Actually there are BOTH saltwater and freshwater crocodiles. but there's not saltwater alligators
Although they all can survive in either freshwater or saltwater.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
