animals may soon cease to exist.This book is sixth ina series which aims tomake young people aware of this fact sothat they will be interestedin conservationand do something about it when they aregrown men and women.  \nOne hundred and twenty million years ago,alligators lived with the dinosaurs.Today,thealligator still populates the swamps and pondsof the American south.But modern man,thanks to the price set on alligator hide,maycause this ancient species to vanish from theearth.  \nThis is the story of one alligator who lives inthe Florida Everglades,foraging for food,con-structing underwater dens,battling his ownkind and struggling to escape thegreatest threatto his life-poachers.  \nMary Adrian is a well-known author of chil-dren's books.Here,she presents the alligator-usually pictured as a fearsome creature-as afascinating member of the animal community,helping to maintain the balance of nature.Thedrawings of Genevieve Vaughan-Jacksonround out a book intended to draw the atten-tion of young people toward our national wild-life and the cause of conservation.  \n# THE AMERICAN ALLIGATOR\n\n三  \nOTHER BOOKS BY MARY ADRI AN  \nHastings House  \nTHE

and twenty million years ago alli-gators lived with the dinosaurs.This has been proven byscientists who have studied fossil bones buried in rocks.Some of the ancient alligators were sixty feet long butotherwise looked much like those living at the presenttime.  \nThe American alligator is different from its close rela-tive the American crocodile.It is darker,has a muchbroader snout,and lives mainly in fresh water.  \nBothathe alligator and the crocodile belong to theCrocodytidae family.Crocodiles are found in a numberof different countries,but only two species of alligatorslive in the world today.They are the American alligator,Alligator mississippiensis,found in the southern part ofthe United States,and its smaller cousin,Alligatorsinensis,which inhabits the Yangtze River in China.  \nAE有eologists have found evidence thatpre-SeminoleIndians lived in Florida before the coming of the whiteman.They caught alligators in traps and used theirmeat,especially the tails,for food.  \nLater,when the white man came to the new world,hekilled alligators with rifles and clubs for sport and fortheir hides.At that time the big reptiles were common onthe southern part of the Atlantic Coast and along theGulf of Mexico.But the slaughter of alligators did not  \n5  \n8543GRANT PARISH LIBR","cbCaifIPYr7TTPWi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifIPYr7TTPWi","pdf",4235242,"English","#
