Article Synopsis
- Uninfected alligators have strong genes that help them fight off infections, while uninfected mice focus more on digestion and energy.
- When mice are injected with bacteria, they get really sick and can even die.
- But when alligators are injected with a lot of the same bacteria, they don't get sick and even clear their stomachs quickly, showing they use energy to boost their immune system without getting more tired.
