Photograph of an alligator in the Okefenokee Swamp in Brantley County, Georgia. Only its eyes and snout rise from the water.
The vocal communications of alligators, coupled with protective maternal behavior, give these large reptiles a reputation and aura of omnipresence unmatched by any other species of wildlife in the Okefenokee Swamp. - Metadata URL:
