A Saltwater Crocodile is a crocodilian reptile that is found in tropical and subtropical waters throughout the world. They are the largest of all living reptiles, and can weigh up to 2,000 pounds!
Saltwater Crocodiles are often mistaken for alligators, but there are some key differences. Firstly, alligators have a rounded snout, while crocodiles have a more pointed snout. Secondly, crocodiles have much longer teeth than alligators - their fourth tooth on the lower jaw sticks out past their upper lip!
Saltwater Crocodiles are carnivorous animals and will eat anything they can get their jaws on - from fish and birds to small mammals and even other reptiles! They are known to be very aggressive predators and have been known to kill and eat humans on occasion.
Despite their fearsome reputation, Saltwater Crocodiles are actually very important members of their ecosystems. They help keep the populations of prey species in check, and play a vital role in the food chain.
