Aliga Tears Papertoy – The Trickster Gator’s Lesson in Deception

Meet Aliga, the sneaky alligator from the city lake, known for his dramatic but totally fake crocodile tears. He had a simple trick—pretending to be sad so kind-hearted picnickers would feed him their snacks. One day, he pulled his usual act on a little girl named Lily, claiming his dear frog friend had moved away. Feeling sorry for him, Lily handed over her bread crusts.

But Aliga’s game took a turn when a dog suddenly startled him. In his panic, he snapped at the dog, sending the rest of the bread flying. That’s when Lily saw the truth—he wasn’t actually sad, just greedy. With his trick exposed, Aliga learned the hard way that you can only fake tears for so long before people catch on.

The term “crocodile tears” comes from an old myth that crocodiles cry while eating their prey to seem more sympathetic. It’s a phrase used to describe someone pretending to be sad when they really aren’t. And Aliga? Well, he was the perfect example—until he got caught.
