How is a crocodile snout different from a alligator snout?
A crocodile's head is more narrow and the snout comes to more of a point as compared to an alligator. An alligator's snout is blunt - more of a U-shape. I try to remember the difference by thinking that if the nose is pointed like a capital "A", then it is not an Alligator. It's a bit tough to remember since it is a negative. Another memory jog - though negative - would be if the snout is rounded (a capital "C" is rounded) it is not a Crocodile.

What is the difference between crocks and alligators?
Crocodiles and alligators look similar, but they belong to separate families of the order Crocodilia. The easiest way to tell them apart is to look at their snouts. An alligator has a broad snout, and its upper jaw is wider than its lower jow. This gives the alligator an overbite--if you look at its snout while its mouth is closed, you will only see its upper teeth. A crocodile has a narrower snout, and some of its lower teeth are visible when its mouth is closed, giving it that famous snaggle-toothed grin.
