It's an alligator. There are only two species of alligator... the American Alligator and the Chinese Alligator. Alligators are crocodilians, but not true crocodiles. Non-extinct crocodilians include true crocodiles, alligators, caimans, gharials, and false gharials.
Here is a nice picture to compare the heads.
Cool critters, huh?
