    Maybe the crocs will help mitigate the invasive snake species?

    Wouldn’t rising sea level increase their habitat area? I mean because they live in the water.

      Crocodiles spend time in bodies of water but at the end of the day it’s a reptile. Which I hope would inspire the thought of sunlight and it needing to bask on land more than it is in water

      They were critically endangered. Now they are endangered. There is a big difference between 70 and 2500. But there used to be 10 of thousands not that long ago
