In size they range from 224 acres to 1,418 acres and are located in the heart of Bladen County. The origin of these lakes remains a puzzle to geologists. Louder discusses their history, physical features, access, and fish populations.

Abstract:
North Carolina is one of nine states where the American alligator roams, and its habitat in the swampy areas near the coast is the limit of its northern range. Its average size is eight to ten feet. North Carolina's largest living alligator measures thirteen feet and lives in the swamps of Carteret County. These creatures are extremely shy and prefer the wild areas far away from humans.

Abstract:
The 3,800 acre Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest is located in Graham County. This ageless forest, the last virgin forest on the East Coast, has never been touched by an axe and will remain so. It was dedicated in 1936 to the American soldier-poet, Joyce Kilmer, who wrote the famous poem “Trees,\" and was later killed in World War I on July 30, 1918.

Abstract:
The American alligator is found in the wildest part of southeastern North Carolina near the coast. Belonging to an order of reptiles known as the Crocodilia containing 25 species, only two species of alligator are known, and North Carolinians should consider ourselves fortunate to have such an animal in our midst. Unfortunately, many American alligators are killed by hunters for the \"thrill,\" and unless a law is passes to protect the species, the alligator will fast disappear from the scene.
