Can you tell me what is the difference between the crocodile and the alligator?

The main difference between a crocodile and an alligator is their physical characteristics. Crocodiles are typically larger than alligators, with adults ranging from 6 to 14 feet in length. Alligators have more rounded snouts and longer tails than crocodiles. In terms of diet, crocodiles primarily eat fish, while alligators feed on mammals and birds.
