assistant
The main difference between a crocodile and an alligator is size. Crocodiles can grow up to 20 feet in length, while alligators typically reach less than 10 feet. Crocodiles have longer snouts and more pointed teeth than alligators do. Alligators also tend to be more aquatic than crocodiles, with webbed feet for swimming.
