Do alligators live anywhere else besides Florida?

Historically, alligators were found naturally in the Carolinas as far inland as the Fall Line, which for North Carolina means mostly coastal and inland for a few miles. They actually range north of Charlotte on the coast, but do not go inland far enough to reach the Charlotte area. In the Mississippi Valley they go into northern Mississippi and Arkansas. They are also found in the southeast corner of Oklahoma and the southern parts of all the Gulf Coast states, including all of Louisiana. http://www.uga.edu/srelherp/ecoview/Eco50.htm Jul 14 02, 3:32 PM

Let us not forget "The Chinese alligator currently is found only in the Yangtze River valley and is extremely endangered, with only a couple dozen believed to be left in the wild. The American alligators normally live along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida as well as Arkansas, Georgia and the Carolinas." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alligator Sep 25 07, 8:06 PM
