Crocodile or Alligator Flashlight



Another in our new line of these useful and cute flashlights!

Our Animal Carabiner Flashlights


Our carabiner animal flashlights are the coolest way to make sure you always have a light nearby! Look at the tail, they simply open up to snap onto a key ring, backpack, belt, book bag, or anyplace else a person can hook something. The light is surprisingly bright for such a small flashlight! Keep one next to your bed, by the back door, inside your car or on your bike. The light is bright enough to find things in the dark - such as finding the lock on your house or car door. Helps keep both kids and adults safe when unexpected scenarios come up. Just press the button on the critter's back, and you have light! Is there a better way to find the outhouse on a camping trip than to let our flashlight animals find the trail for you? Or what about lighting your way on Halloween? Fun for birthday parties, as stocking stuffers, or Hanukkah gifts for any age. Check out our other reptile toys and gifts and our multi-style animal flashlights. The animal flashlights page also shows you what the lights look like when the light is on! If you have a teeeeeny little screwdriver, you can pop in a replacement battery. However, we've noticed that the lights last for quite a long time on the original battery.

About Alligators


An Alligator is a crocodilian in the genus Alligator. The name alligator comes from Spanish el lagarto (the lizard), the name by which early Spanish explorers and settlers in Florida called the alligator. There are two living alligator species: the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) and the Chinese alligator. It is an ancient animal and has survived for 200 million years. An average adult American alligator's weight and length is 800 pounds and 13 feet long. According to the Everglades National Park website, the largest alligator ever recorded in Florida was 17 feet 5 inches. The Chinese alligator is smaller, rarely exceeding 7 feet in length. Alligators have an average of 75 teeth.

About Crocodiles


There are numerous kinds of crocodiles. Some live in fresh water, and some in salt water. Crocodiles have long, narrow snouts, and the 4th tooth of the lower jaw is outside when the mouth is closed. Their scales have modified to form thick tough skin. All crocodiles have eyes and nostrils are on the top part of the head so that they can lie in the water almost completely hidden from view. Crocodiles have very strong jaws. They do not chew their food. They swallow it in large chunks. In the stomach the food is broken down. They feed on a large variety of prey such as small mammals, birds and even cattle. Crocodiles grab their prey and move to deep water, where they roll over to drown the animal. They can leap high out of the water to reach their prey if necessary.

Stuffed Crocodile Stage Puppet



Wanna scare ol' Captain Hook? We've got'cha covered!!!

"Wavy," Our Crocodile Stage Puppet


Our stuffed crocodile stage puppet (or hand puppet) by Folkmanis is the same one you've seen on "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" as host of the 1000th episode of the show. Wavy is extremely well made and features an easily animated mouth and operable arms. This puppet is very well made. Design details include soft sculpted plush with molded claws and teeth. Wavy's mouth is lots of fun to SNAP! The teeth are hollow soft plastic and do not have any sharp edges. The color of the body is a lusciuos dark green - very realistic for a crocodile, and beautiful to look at! A soft padded spine and soft pink felt inside Wavy's mouth make him extra fun to hold and use. The jaws have a flexible gentle stiffener inside so the mouth keeps its crocodilian look. The wavy jaws and shiny green eye make this puppet just the thing for your stage puppet play or for playing around with every day. Wavy the Crocodile Puppet could also make a wonderful item for show-and-tell to demonstrate crocodiles for your school project. What if you let WAVY talk to the class about crocodiles while you work his mouth and hands? What a fun production! Check out our other crocodile toys and gifts.

Deinosuchus: Extinct crocodile replica

Isn't this just what you've been looking for? Hasn't everyone? For the crocodile fan in your life or the lover of paleontology . . . Deinosuchus, the extinct crocodile, comes to life in this realistic plastic model by Safari.

Note the beautiful colors and lifelike detail in our museum-quality plastic deinosuchus replica. Dinosuchus was a crocodile that reached about 30 feet in length and lived during the Cretaceous period. If you think it looks ferocious at 10 inches, imagine how impressive it would be at 30 feet! Its name means "terrible crocodile," and it's easy to imagine why. You can read more about this extinct crocodile in the online dinosaur and paleontology dictionary. If you like plastic crocodiles and prehistoric creatures, this wonderful replica might be just the thing to add to your collection or use for a school project or diorama. Our plastic extinct crocodile is 10 inches long from its nose to the bend in its tail. Made of sturdy, solid plastic, deinosuchus has its name moulded into the underside of its belly. Our plastic crocodile is educational and nice to look at. It's also priced reasonably enough to be used as a toy. Deinosuchus is part of the Carnegie Collection made by Safari, Ltd.
