Alligators usually sneak up on their prey, catch them offguard, drown them and swallow them whole above water as they can not swallow underwater. Their jaws are not designed for tearing and ripping flesh (like crocodiles), but instead for crushing bone.
Yes, alligators are known to eat ducks as part of their diet, especially when they come near the water's edge where alligators typically wait to ambush their prey. Ducks are a common source of food for alligators in their natural habitat.
Yes, alligators can go poop. Like all animals, they have digestive systems that process their food and produce waste that needs to be eliminated from their bodies. Alligators typically defecate in water.
Alligators will eat other alligators on occasion. A mother alligator will generally watch over her brood for a while, once they're in the water, but eventually her instincts tell her it's time to leave. After that...any small animal in the water is potentially food, even her young.
Alligators don't usually eat fish, they eat small animals that come to drink from the water's edge. They lay mostly or totally submerged in the water near the edge and wait for an animal to get close. Once the animal is close enough, the alligator charges out of the water, grabs the animal before it can flee, and drags it under to drown and eat it. Alligators will take anything from birds to deer as prey items. Fish are not a staple part of their diets. Their hunting technique is a big part of why people get bitten by alligators and crocodiles. The water looks safe, but it sure isn't!
Adult alligators have few natural predators, but larger alligators or crocodiles, jaguars, and large birds of prey such as eagles may prey on younger alligators. In addition, humans may also consume alligators' eggs or meat.
