snout is the protruding portion of an animal's face, consisting of its nose, mouth, and jaw.
the alligator's snout is wider and U-shaped. Because of the wide snout of the alligator it packs more crushing power to eat prey like turtles that constitute part of its diet.

which is difference between alligator and crocodile?
they are two different species, allowing them to have different features. details seen on both alligators and crocodiles can differentiate them. these features include: alligators are usually dark green/black with wide rounded U shaped snouts and tiny black spots. crocodiles are bigger than alligators with longer + thinner V shaped snouts and tend to be more aggressive.
Are crocodiles larger than alligators?
alligators are larger than crocodiles, but crocodiles are more aggressive. when it comes to crocodilians, the smaller, the more aggressive. take Caimans, for example, they are the most aggressive crocodilians.i personally think that they are seriously misunderstood animals; alligators are known for attacking people for no reason, but they often only attack the people who run from them. their brains are triggered by motion; if they see something traveling fast that is near them, they attack, but otherwise, they wont attack. the people attacked from alligators are the ones who are being stupid and are teasing them.oh, by the way, did you know that crocodilians are the last remaining Archosaurs? Archosaur is the name for the animals like Mesozoic marine reptiles, pterosaurs, and dinosaurs.@first answer- People come here for correct information >:l Anyone who knows their reptiles obviously knows crocodiles are the larger of the two species.
What is the difference between caymans and crocodiles?
Caimans belong to the same family as Alligators, and so are usually smaller than crocodiles (although the Black Caiman can reach lengths of 15 - 20FT!), they have smaller, U-shaped snouts, and their jaws are designed for crushing bone. Caimans also appear a darker colour (like alligators) than most crocodiles, and are generally not as fierce. Hope that helped :)

Do boy rabbits have shorter snouts then girls?
No, usually boy rabbits have longer snouts than girls; however, this is not a good way to determine a rabbit's sex. Just like with humans, some individual rabbits don't fit the stereotypes.

Do some snakes eat alligators and how?

What is the diffrentes between a crocodial and a alligater?
Well, it's not that one of them is spelled correctly ...Alligators are species in the subfamily Alligatorinae; crocodiles are in the subfamily Crocodylinae.More specifically, the only genus of alligators that isn't extinct is Alligator, which only has two living species: the American alligator Alligator mississippiensis and the Chinese alligator Alligator siniensis.When a crocodile's mouth is closed, it should be possible to see the fourth lower tooth protruding outside its "lips". When alligators (and the closely related caimans) close their mouths, the lower teeth cannot be seen.You didn't ask, but alligators can be distinguished from caimans by the fact that caimans don't have a bony septum between their nostrils, and the fourth type of crocodilian (the gharials) can be recognized by their long narrow snouts.
