An alligator is a crocodilian in the genus Alligator of the family Alligatoridae. The two living species are the American alligator (A. mississippiensis) and the Chinese alligator (A. sinensis). In addition, several extinct species of alligator are known from fossil remains.
The longest life span of alligators living in captivity is recorded of an American alligator that died at the age of 85 in Paris, 1937. The oldest Chinese alligator lived was recorded at 60 â 70 years. According to researchers, alligators are not the Methuselahs for which they are generally known for; besides, less than 10% of the young live up to two years old. However, the average life span of alligators in the wild is estimated at 50 years. Alligators fancy living in fresh water while crocodiles can bear salt water. Alligators are strong territorial animals as they defend their territories actively.
