| Large American Alligator swimming submerged in swamp water in Georgia. The alligator has thick tough leathery skin with small bones called osteoderms down its back, making a ridged shield. These hard bones are not connected to each other so the alligator has greater flexibility. Photographed in the Okefenokee Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, Georgia. |
