Alligators have rugged, scaly skin and wide jaws that are satisfying to shade. Try swampy greens, muddy browns and a bright background to make them stand out.

About Alligator Coloring Pages
This collection has 38 free printable alligator coloring pages for kids and adults. Alligators are large reptiles found in the southeastern United States and China, with broad U-shaped snouts and armored backs. They spend most of the day basking in the sun or floating in swamps with only their eyes and nostrils above the water.
Coloring ideas
Mix dark greens and olive for the scales, leave the belly a lighter cream, and add yellow around the eyes. Murky green water, reeds and lily pads make a great swamp scene.
