Alligators make a nest from rotting leaves and dirt beside the water. They usually stay nearby while the eggs are in the nest. When the babies hatch, they make peeping noises, and the mother alligator digs them up and carries them to the water. Alligators actually make very good mothers, and care for their babies for several weeks until the babies can survive on their own.
