Siamese Crocodile

Ohio History
Miniature Croc
This cute little crocodile is just that...little. Living in the Aquarium's Gator Alley, it couldn't have been longer than six inches from head to tail. It reminded me of a salamander. The crocodile's pose was very unique, eyes barely above water, almost like it was ready to take a nap. Maybe it's a technique to stay hydrated while watching out for danger too. Or maybe it's just bored to death! The sign said that the Siamese Crocodile lives just about everywhere--freshwater lakes, streams, and swamps, as well as some brackish waters; however, little is know about the species' diet or population in the wild.
