With razor-sharp teeth, crushing bite force, uncanny patience, and shocking speed, the Alligator is the Swamp's apex predator. This book offers an excellent look at the alligators who live and hunt in the swamps and wetlands of the southeastern United States. Physical traits are examined in richly detailed text and dynamic photographs, while fact-filled sidebars offer additional context on the swamps that are an alligator's hunting ground, and the species that are its prey.
