Crocodilians
Photo courtesy of KyleO
Crocodilia (or Crocodylia) is an order of large reptiles that appeared about 84 million years ago in the late Cretaceous Period (Campanian stage). The correct vernacular term for this group is "crocodilians" and it includes the alligator, crocodile, gharial and caiman families. The term 'crocodiles' is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to alligators and caiman, or even their distant prehistoric relatives, "marine crocodiles". Here you may post messages or questions pertaining to all aspects and issues regarding the keeping, breeding, health, and conservation of all Alligators, Caimans, and Crocodiles. If you are a new user to this forum, please take the time to review the rules first before posting.
