Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dwarf caiman crocodiles, or Paleosuchus palpebrosus as they are known by scientists, are a species of crocodilian found only in the humid forests of South America. They rank among the world's tiniest crocodile species. Key features and facts about Dwarf Caiman Crocodiles are listed below. - Adult Dwarf Caimans usually grow to be about 4 to 5 feet (1.2 to 1.5 meters) long, however some have been recorded as tall as 6 feet (1.8 meters). Unlike larger crocodiles, these reptiles are on the smaller side. - They look like the water they live in because of their dark brown or black coloring. Their scales are like armor, shielding them from danger and protecting them from being eaten. - Dwarf caimans are mostly aquatic and have a reputation for being elusive and reclusive due to their bashful demeanor. They have evolved to be excellent swimmers and hunters, therefore they spend much of their time in the water. Because of this, they are generally nocturnal, or active largely at night. - Crocodiles have a varied diet that includes fish, amphibians, birds, and small animals. They are expert predators who sneak up on their prey. - Dwarf caimans can be found throughout South America in places like Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Peru. They can be found in the rivers, streams, and ponds found throughout tropical woods. - Because of their stable population sizes and lack of immediate danger, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has classified these crocodiles as a "Least Concern" species. However, deforestation and habitat loss pose a threat to their habitat, which may have knock-on effects on their populations. - To reproduce, female Dwarf Caimans construct a nest out of plant matter, and place the eggs there. The female is responsible for protecting the nest and providing care for her young once they hatch. Fascinating and distinctive, dwarf caiman crocodiles serve a significant role in the ecosystems they inhabit by regulating populations of their prey and boosting biodiversity.

Book excerpt: “Tick, tock, tick, tock.” Thanks to Peter Pan, this sound, if heard near water, means run: a hungry crocodile is on its way. J. M. Barrie isn’t fully to blame for spreading the word that crocodiles are our enemies, or at least the enemies of one-handed pirates—innumerable songs, stories, and legends have characterized these reptiles as a symbol of pitiless predation and insatiable appetite. Tracking twenty-three crocodilian species from India and Egypt to Africa, Australia, and beyond, Crocodile advocates that we do a complete one-eighty in our views of these magnificent creatures. Dan Wylie traces the crocodile in myth, art, and literature, demonstrating that though we commonly associate the reptiles with ferocity and deceit, they have also often been respected and revered in human history. Discussing how crocodiles were all but wiped out in the middle of the twentieth century by hunters and skin traders and are now making a comeback, he reveals that, as apex predators, they are today an increasingly important indicator of the health of an ecosystem and may outlive humans like they did dinosaurs. Presenting a concise, cogent case for why we should respect these fearsome animals, this beautifully illustrated volume is a tribute to one of the world’s ultimate survivors.
