A Smile for the Crocodile
The crocodile is the world's largest living reptile and has a reputation for being the most dangerous. It is true certain species eat people, but now research is revealing the crocodile in a fresh light. It can slow its body functions to the point where the heart beats only four times a minute. It spends much time caring for its young, and recently the mother crocodile was observed to carry her young in her jaws.
Today, apart from the American alligator, all species of crocodile are in danger of extinction. If they are not shot for their hides, their habitat is destroyed for agricultural use. What are the chances of survival for this remarkable animal?
