it just peaked my curiosity. i was looking at some pictures here on my laptop and i came across this picture of a crocodile. i am not sure what type of crocodile this but i looked it up and i found this on yahoo answers. and i would just like to share it with you guys. They have 66 teeth. Here is some extra stuff Anatomy: Adult American Crocodiles are gray-green, dark olive, or grayish-brown on their back which has ridged, bony scales. The belly is yellow to white and has smooth scales. They grow up to 15 feet (4.6 m) long. The fourth tooth on either side of the lower jaw is exposed (unlike alligators, whose teeth fit into sockets). Diet: American Crocodiles are carnivorous (meat-eaters). They eat fish and other animals that they find in or near the water, including turtles, snakes, crustaceans (like crabs), small mammals, and birds. They are nocturnal, hunting mostly at night.
