Do alligators swim in a zig zag?

Answer 1

Do what you have to do, they are dangerous animals. an alligator can run on land fast enough to catch any human. However it is not the way they usually operate. they camouflage themselves in the murky waters until prey is upon their reach. The zig zag theory is one that researchers allready have determined is to no use. So stay away from their areas.

Answer 2

Alligators typically swim in a straight line, using their powerful tails to propel themselves through the water efficiently. However, they may exhibit a zig-zag pattern when hunting or stalking prey in order to ambush them more effectively.

Answer 3

Not usually, no. When hunting, alligators submerge themselves under the water, and then launch theirself into their enemy. hope that helped :)

Answer 4

Yes that is correct. They can run up to 35 miles/hr but if you are zig-zagging it is much more difficult for them to zig-zag their long bodies.

Answer 5

No, just let it eat you.
