Frozen Alligators and Brumating Swamp Puppies: A Chilling Encounter in the Cold Swamp

Our alligators are frozen. They are able to break the ice. People keep asking how the swamp puppies are doing. I’m happy to report that they are frozen solid. You literally have gator sickles right now. So with it being as cold as it is, and alligators are cold blooded right now, they are in a state called brumation. So right now they’re taking a break from being sassy and are just conserving energy. And you can see it’s frozen. Let’s go see what some of the other ones look like. Oh, my gosh! This is like something out of Jurassic Park. This is crazy. Anytime it gets cold to the point to where the water would freeze, these guys will instinctively tilt their nose up to the point to where it’s out of the water so they don’t just suffocate under the water. Think of it as a cute little danger snorkel. I don’t do this at home, but I just. I just have to do this. Okay. Boop! Oh, my God! I did it! Never in my life I think I would do that.
