Alligators, like other reptiles, do not have blood types in the same way that mammals do, which are categorized into types like A, B, AB, and O. Instead, their blood is composed of red blood cells that lack nuclei, and their immune system functions differently. Research on alligator blood has shown it contains antimicrobial peptides, which help them fight infections. Thus, while they don't have blood types, their blood has unique properties beneficial for their survival.
