Rather than just focus on crocodiles, this book shows crocodiles and other members of the Crocodilia Order. This includes animals you may already know, such as the alligator, but it also contains the ones you hear about less: the caiman, the gharial, and the false gharial. And believe me, these guys are some cool reptiles. The crocodile is one of the ancient types of animals; like sharks and moose, it has been around a long time, surviving many different environmental catastrophes and changing some with the times. With their powerful jaws and swiftness in the water, crocodilians are some of the most dangerous, yet the most fascinating, kinds of lizards. A crocodilian is not an animal to be played with.
