But you mention the North Pole, (which as far as I know does not have
a permanent weather station,) and that is not the only Arctic
location. Alligators do not live in the open ocean, they live in
rivers. For instance those that will form in the north of Ellesmere
Island where fossils of Alligators have been found.
The Canadian Encyclopaedia says :
Ellesmere Island
Some 55 million years ago, during the early Eocene Epoch, ELLESMERE
Island in Canada's eastern High Arctic was warm and ice-free.
Apart from Global Warming, there is Global Wandering! What was the lat. &
long. of Ellesmere Island 55 myr ago? Was it an island then?
