What is the natural habitat of alligators?
Alligators make their dens and nests along the wet banks of swampy rivers, bayous, and lakes. Most are just accumulations of dead plants and trees. Alligators do not usually require shelter. When the female alligator lays her eggs, she builds a nest on dry land and surrounds it with decaying plant material, which raises the temperature around the eggs to between 30° and 35° C (86° to 94° F). A warmer nest will produce a majority of male offspring, a cooler one will yield more females.

Is an allilagator an amphibian?
Crocodiles and alligators are very similar to amphibians but they are not termed under amphibians. In fact they are a part of the reptile family. They are the larger reptiles in this family. The difference between amphibians and reptiles are that though many reptiles like crocodiles and alligators can live in both water and land they are less dependant on water than the amphibians. An amphibian might be able to live on land but it needs a water body nearby. It cannot survive on dry and desert areas unlike the reptiles. Moreover though crocodiles and alligators can live in water they have to come on the land tolay eggs which is not mandatory in the case of amphibians like frogs. The reptiles like crocodiles, alligators and other species related to them breathe through their lungs while amphibians have other organs to fulfil this purpose. Thus the crocodiles are not a part of the amphibian family because they are more closely related to the reptiles with their scaly skin,lizard like shape, and jaws.
