How Do Alligators Shape the Everglades Ecosystem?
š” The Answer
- Alligators dig 'gator holes' that retain water during the dry season.
- These holes become refuges for fish, turtles, and birds.
- Their nesting mounds create elevated habitat for other species.
- By preying on invasive species, alligators help maintain balance.
- They are considered a keystone species and ecosystem engineer.
