| American alligator (*Alligator mississippiensis*) partially submerged in water, surrounded by floating green aquatic plants, likely water lettuce (*Pistia stratiotes*). The alligator's textured, dark scaly skin and long tail are visible as it lies motionless. Its eyes peek just above the waterline, blending in with the swamp environment. The scene captures a typical habitat found in the southeastern United States, where alligators are commonly found basking in the sun or resting in shallow waters. |
