See you later, alligator? In the Nile, crocodile.
Nile Crocodiles are among the oldest species on earth and, with alligators and caimans, are the only living descendants of the large reptilian archosaurs or ‘Ruling Lizards’ which also included the dinosaurs. The ancestors of the crocodile appeared 200 million years ago; Although crocodiles look like alligators, they can be distinguished by their longer, narrower snout, and their fourth tooth, which sticks out from the lower jaw rather than fitting neatly into the upper jaw. The adults can reach lengths of over 10 feet and can weigh up to 1500 pounds.
Nile Crocodiles range all over Africa, eating almost anything (including each other!).
