All crocodilians are reptiles with long
snouts, long tails, four short legs,
tough skin, and sharp teeth. Members
of the crocodilian family include
alligators, crocodiles, caimans, and
gavials. Crocodilians live in
weather throughout the year and they
spend part of their time in the water
and part of their time on land. Almost
all crocodilians grow to be very large,
with the largest more than twenty feet
long. There are two kinds of alligators,
14 kinds of crocodiles, eight kinds of
caimans, and one kind of gavial.

Recently, scientists have gained an
understanding of a crocodile's
reproductive activity. Crocodiles mate
in the water, where the buoyancy
keeps them from crushing each other.
Prior to mating, there are stylized
postures, jumping, submerged bubble
blowing, and snout contact. After
mating, hard-shelled eggs are laid in a
nest, in a hole scooped in the sand.
When it is time to hatch, the infant
crocodiles begin a loud chirping sound
that leads the female to the nest,
which she excavates. Finally, when all
the babies are accounted for, the
mother crocodile, transports them to
the shallow water where they will
remain under adult protection for
weeks or months.​
