The warm water of the lake transfers heat to the alligator through conduction.

Ectothermic animals like alligators depend on outside heat sources to maintain body temperature. By taking a sunbath or relocating to places with warmer or colder air or water temperatures, alligators may regulate their body temperature. Ectothermic, or cold-blooded, alligators experience temperature changes in response to their surroundings. Alligators are forced to actively regulate their body temperature as a result, searching out locations that are both warm and cool enough for them. Alligators may lay in the sun with their jaws open to allow heat to escape while they enjoy the Florida sunshine as it becomes too hot over 92°. Alligators will move very little during the day and become more active at night if the temperature is too high.
