How does one define canapes? Well, they are tiny appetizers, that are really works of art, served on a base like a cracker or polenta round. Usually they can be eaten in one or two bites max.
The American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) was abundant in the pre-drainage Everglades in Southern Florida, USA. The largest populations occurred in broad marl prairies to the east and west of the southern ridge and slough and in the freshwater mangrove zone (Figure 1).
HABITAT. Alligators occupy a variety of wetland habitats in Georgia. They are found in marshes, swamps, rivers, farm ponds and lakes in the wild, but also have been found in ditches, neighborhoods, drainage canals, roadways, golf course ponds and sometimes in swimming pools. During the courtship and breeding season, April to May, alligators prefer open waters.
