Alligators are amphibious animals and need to spend time in the water.
Adult American alligators have very few predators, but they do get eaten by black bears on rare occasions. A bigger alligator will occasionally eat the adult alligator. The youngs get preyed on by big fish, wading birds, monitor lizards, and water snakes.
Alligators are not blind but do not have peripheral vision. Alligators may look to be slow but they are not.
No. Alligators live in fresh water, sharks live in salt water.
Alligators will eat other alligators on occasion. A mother alligator will generally watch over her brood for a while, once they're in the water, but eventually her instincts tell her it's time to leave. After that...any small animal in the water is potentially food, even her young.
It depends! Alligators like fresh water and Crocodiles like salt water!
