Crocodiles

How endangered are they?

Most crocodiles are not all that endangered but some are extremely close to extinction. Cuban crocodiles are now restricted only to Cuba. They are extremely threatened by habitat destruction and illegal poaching.

How unique are they?

All crocodiles are tremendously unique. The reason they have been living for more than millions and millions of years is there blood. Their blood can cure a disease that has no real cure.  Basically the blood eats the disease away. That is one reason they have lived for a long time. 

Their habitat

Crocodiles like to live in warm habitats. They spend most of their time in the water but when they need to warm up they sit on the bank of the river. They also like to live in marsh areas.

What do they hunt and eat

The crocodile  is a carnivore they are actually very smart hunters they are mostly ambush predators  but when they get the chance they watch their pray observing them like when they sleep, eat and leave that makes them incredibly smart.

Human involvement

The human involvement in the crocodile’s life is HUGE. Like when the now young crocs are looking for a territory they sometimes end up in a suburban area and are trapped and killed. They also are hunted for competitions.

What you can do:

If you help save the one animal that has been living for millions of years you would have helped saved the greatest and oldest animal on earth. That alone is the best award you can ever  get.
