Gators are most active in the evening when the air is coolest. They have no sweat glands ( just like a dog ) so they prefer cooler ( not cold ) temperatures.
alligators come out after they make a kind of noise.
Most reptiles are active during the day for about 8 to 12 hours depending in the reptile. Some, however, are most active at night. It depends on the species you're dealing with.
Reptiles are vertebrates with bodies covered with scales..They Absorb heat from the environment,but they avoid very high and very low temperatures.During winter some Reptiles hibernate.Reptiles that live in dessert share active at night when the temperature is lower.

There are hundreds of species of nocturnal animals. These includes birds (owls), mammals (bats, mice, etc.), some reptiles, and many kinds of fish).
Snakes and lizards are reptiles.
Penguins are birds, not reptiles.
Snakes are usually most active in the summer, as they are cold blooded reptiles and the heat helps them warm up and become active.
They are much less active , for the most part.
Reptiles, unlike mammals, can't regulate their body heat. They become torpid during the cold of the night, and would be easy prey if they didn't hide away. Once the sun has risen and the air has warmed up, so reptiles will become more active.
Large, active reptiles, such as non-avian dinosaurs, went extinct before the start of the Cenozoic. Hence, dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and other such reptiles are not characteristic of the Cenozoic.
Reptiles' body temperature fluctuates according to their surrounding air temperature. In cold temperatures (pre-dawn) snakes will be torpid, and only active once the rising sun has warmed the snake up.

Reptiles are a class of animals know as cold-blooded. This means they can't regulate their temperature by themselves. Mammals, being warm-blooded will sweat or pant when they get warm or shiver when they get cold. Reptiles can't do either of these. So when it gets cold, they become sluggish. Reptiles are not very active during cold weather because it is to cold for them too move. They like to stay warm instead.
Reptiles are all Heterotrophs. All breath air, All have scales, Almost all lay eggs (Boa Constrictors and Rattle Snakes give live birth) All need heat to be active, All are cold-blooded.
reptiles are well known for not sleeping for long periods of time. but it comes to a time during the winter when the sun don't shine that turtles lizards and snakes do hibernate for few months.

Reptiles or animals that are ectotherms such as lizards,snakes & crocodiles gain their warmth from sunlight. That is why they are very energetic after lazing around in the sun.
