Chinese Alligator
A. sinensis prefers slow-moving freshwater rivers and streams, including
lakes, ponds and swamps. Also found in both low-elevation agricultural and
tree farm communes. These areas can be up to 100 m above sea level. Alligators
spend a considerable period each year (6 to 7 months) hibernating within
complex burrow systems in order to escape the climatic extremes associated
with the northerly latitudes at which they occur. Temperatures within burrows
rarely fall below 10? C.
