Srsly, I don't know if I could tell which one was if it were put in front of me, and I'd be just as terrified if I were in the water with either.
If the mouth is closed then crocs have their teeth poking out, gators don't. If the mouth is open then consider running away.
Interesting. I've heard the round vs pointy snout one (which doesn't help because I can never remember which way it goes - I need mnemonics, dammit) but not this one.
I guess there are now crocs in FL, so I may have to use this information someday. Like, "oh, its teeth were showing when they mouth was closed, so I'm being eaten by a croc, not a common alligator!"
