they are 2 different, but similar animals. Also to be included is the 'Cayman', the third member of the group.

Alligators have teeth in their jaws that are hidden behind their 'lips'.

Crockodiles' teeth, or some of them, are outside the mouth, and overlap the lips on the opposite jaw.

Caymans are like Crocs in that respect, but have narrower, pointier faces. The correct pronunciation is key-mun, from the word Cay, an island, which is pronouced 'kee'. (Like the Florida Cays, often misspelled "Florida Keys". But many people will call them 'kay-men'.

How do you tell the difference between a baby common snapping turtle and a baby alligator snapping turtle?

Aligator snapping turtles and regular snapping turtles can be told apart by the tail on the aligator snapping turtle, which is longer with jagged spines. Its tail resembles an aligators thus the name aligator snapping turtle. It also has a more defined shell when its young so it will have larger looking spines than a regular snapping turtle.
