Summary

Description

Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) at Honolulu Zoo

In West Africa, Nile crocodiles occur most frequently in coastal lagoons, estuaries and in the rivers bordering the equatorial forest belt. In East Africa, they are found mostly in rivers, lakes, marshes and dams. Nile crocodiles have a dark bronze coloration above, with black spots on the back and a dirty yellow on the belly. The flanks, which are yellowish green in color, have dark patches arranged in oblique stripes. Their eyes are green. Like all crocodiles, they are quadrupeds with four short, splayed legs; long, powerful tails; a scaly hide with rows of ossified scutes running down their back and tail; and powerful jaws. They have nictitating membranes to protect their eyes and have lachrymal glands, and can cleanse their eyes with tears.
