Thanks, Diane. I like to go visit the new babies in the spring. About 100 ft from here, the adolescent alligators like to lie on the shore in the winter sunshine.

That's all well and good, Ronald, but where's the mother? Or, does the mother even bother with them after they're hatched?

I did not see the mother that day. I have read that the mother watches/defends them for a year or so. animaldiversity.org/accounts/Alligator_mississippiensis

I saw three baby alligators here, and heard several more further from shore. I watched carefully for their mom.

Vielleicht seine Mutter ist mehr gefährlich. I habe ihr nicht gesehen.
