How much do you know about crocodiles?
Though crocodiles and alligators are similar and belong to the class of reptiles, they belong to different biological families. Crocodiles live in the tropics in Asia, America, Africa, and Australia. Crocodiles have existed for thousands of years. In fact, they have existed longer than most other animals. There are several different types of crocodiles in the world. Many of them are named after where they live. You can easily guess where the American crocodile, the Cuban crocodile or the Nile crocodile lives. You can also guess how the Dwarf crocodile got its name — it is the smallest of all living crocodiles.
The American crocodile is considered to be an endangered species in nearly all parts of North, Central, and South America. A small population lives in southern Florida, but most are found in southern Mexico, Central America, and northern South America. This species is among the largest of the world’s crocodiles reaching lengths of up to 20 feet (6.1 metres).
They have great senses including excellent hearing, eyesight, and sense of smell. They can swim very fast. They can move much faster than a human can run. These animals are very dangerous and are one of the most dangerous animals to humans.
