Elk jaar stroomt de rivier buiten zijn oevers. Its head is robust, more so than that of the American alligator,[16] with a bony septum dividing its nostrils. [8] In 1869, Robert Swinhoe saw a Chinese alligator in an exhibit in Shanghai and wrote the following year: In February, 1869, some Chinese were exhibiting in the native city of Shanghai what they called a dragon, which they declared had been dug out of a hole in the province of Shense.

Dark gray or black in color with a fully armored body, the Chinese alligator grows to 1.5–2.1 metres (5–7 ft) in length and weighs 36–45 kilograms (80–100 lb) as an adult. [38] In 1999, the Wildlife Conservation Society estimated that 130–150 individuals were left in the wild. [60][61] Alligator drums may have been used to simulate the species' vocalizations during the mating season, which humans associated with the dragon's "power of summoning rainclouds". A study of 50 clutches showed multiple paternity in 60% of them, with up to three males contributing. [2] A docile species, it generally does not intentionally hurt humans. [45] Captive-born Chinese alligators have been reintroduced into their native range, boosting the wild population.

[41] During the 1970s and 1980s, humans sometimes killed the alligators, because they believed they were pests, out of fear, or for their meat. The specific name, sinensis, is from the Latin plural possessive sinaensis, meaning "belonging to China". [5] The organochlorine compound sodium pentachlorophenate was used to kill snails in agricultural fields starting in 1958, which incidentally poisoned the alligators as well. [6] In 1947, it was suggested to group the Chinese alligator in a separate genus from its American relative, due to the Chinese alligator's bony plate on its upper eyelid. Beiden leven van vis, watervogels en al wat ze te pakken kunnen krijgen.
