Crocodiles
will often pull their prey into the water and
drown them before they begin to eat. They use
their huge jaws to rip the meat off of their
prey and then they gulp it down.
However, in recent years it is not the crocodile
that has been winning the battle for life.
Bringing crocodiless back from the edge of extinction
and returning them to former abundance is one
of the true success stories in international
wildlife conservation, a success story that
owes much of its credit to the Crocodile Specialist
Group (CSG), an international network of people
working to conserve the world's 23 species of
crocodilians.
