I don't know about you but I don't think I would want to live forever. Immortality seems like it would get boring after many many centuries of life.

I think you are absolutely right.  I think immortality is a lot less fun than it is cracked up to be.  I say leave it to the alligators, and the other immortal species.

Yeah especially the vampires! But I don't think that alligators are immortal, right?

It is believed that some species of animals are actually biologically immortal, and alligators are one.  They can die but they don't die of natural causes, instead they grow, if allowed to live that long, until they are too big to find enough food to eat then they starve to death.  Pretty sad.

Oh wow! What in interesting story! I have never heard that. They have some pretty big alligators in Florida. I will never look at alligators the same. They could be hundreds of years old! Wow!
