THE CROCODILE
The crocodile that I researched lives in the Amazon Rainforest.
It can grow to be 30 feet long. Its tail is about as long as its
body, so watch out when you are walking in the Amazon. Its color
is greenish brown, and black in some places on the body. Its legs
are short but it can run fast. When you are running from a crocodile
run straight don't run side to side because its eyes are on the
side of its head it can not see you when you are running straight.
The crocodile has a long snout and sharp teeth so is can kill
its prey. The crocodile has sharp claws so it can keep hold of
its prey. It can weight 250-300 pounds. It lays eggs not live
babies like humans. The crocodiles scales are dull not sharp like
there claws.
The crocodile eats small animals like fish, spider monkeys, tapers
and much more. The anaconda eats the crocodile. How the anaconda
eats the crocodile it squeezes, the crocodile and swallows it
whole It crushes its bones and spits the bones back out and eats
the skin. Humans also eat the crocodile. The humans kill the crocodile
and eat some of it for them. Then sell it at a market to make
money for there houses, food, and farms. The crocodile skin is
used for blankets and beds.
