Description

The American Crocodile (Crocodylus Acutus) is one of the largest crocodile species, has gray-green skin, and a narrow triangular snout. They are found in the coasts and rivers of southern Mexico, central America, the Caribbean, and northern regions of South America. Their diet consists of small mammals, birds, fish, crabs, insects, snails, frogs, and sometimes carrion. They don’t have to feed often as their digestion system allows them to survive extended period of time without food. The American crocodile is considered to be vulnerable to extinction. They have an average life span of up to 70 years in the wild.

Crocodilians are an ancient group of reptiles that include crocodiles, alligators, caimans, and gharials. This order, Crocodilia, dates back about 200 million years, surviving past mass extinctions. Modern crocodilians are semi-aquatic predators, primarily found in tropical regions.
