They also have two African dwarf crocs - which I've now heard (thanks to a comment at #TetZoo) are indeed known to be the nominal species #Osteolaemus tetraspis. You can see the crocs both under and above the water... #crocodiles#zoos@ZSLWhipsnadeZoo
[New e-Book] Despite being commonly seen in SG today, saltwater #crocodiles are still listed by the @IUCNRedList as #extinct in SG since 1996! @LKCNHM’s Kate Pocklington hopes to change this with her new e-book—𝗕𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘁, 𝗚𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻, 𝗜𝘀𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱: https://t.co/WN9H8NBgZX🐊

“Behold him rushing forth from the flags and reeds. His enormous belly swells...The waters like a cataract descend from his opening jaws. Clouds of smoke issue from his dilated nostrils. The earth trembles with his thunder."—William Bartram's (1791) description of a #crocodile

It is said the #ploverbird is like the crocodile's toothbrush. When a #crocodile needs its mouth cleaned, it will open it and wait for the plover bird to come and eat the food stuck in its teeth.
Some extinct species of crocs were plant-eaters, fossil study reveals. Several ancient groups of crocodyliforms, the lineage that includes #crocodiles and #alligators, were not carnivores at all; in fact, they were #vegetarians. https://t.co/QaOuMwKtnE
