About West African Dwarf Crocodiles

The west african dwarf crocodile (Osteolaemus tetraspis) is one of three species of African crocodiles. It is the smallest crocodile in the world, growing to no more than 5 feet in length. It is black in color with patches of yellow on its underside, and has a short blunt snout similar to a caiman's. It is a slow, reclusive animal and hunts at night in water or on the bank. During the day it rests in burrows that may have a submerged entrance. Little is known about the population of this unusual reptile. It has been presumed by conservationists that its number is still plentiful. It has not been hunted with the same zeal as other larger African crocodiles, although leather products can be found in local villages made from its skin.
