Brown in color and covered with dark blotches, males grow to a total length (including tail) of 2–3 m (6 ft 7 in – 9 ft 10 in) and weigh around 40–50 kg (88–110 lb); while females grow to 1.4 m (4 ft 7 in) long and about 15–20 kg (33–44 lb). Typical habitats of this caiman include lakes, rivers, and wetlands. Its diet primarily consists of aquatic animals, such as snails, and occasionally land vertebrates. Mating occurs in the rainy season and eggs hatch in March, with young fending for themselves as soon as they hatch. The yacare caiman was hunted heavily for its skin to use for leather in the 1980s, which caused its population to decrease significantly. However, trading restrictions placed since have caused its population to increase. Its population in the 2143: 636: 8440: 2087: 3316: 905: 2831: 10709: 9301: 11005: 12275: 6235: 1127: 2993: 8869: 3117: 7868: 7110: 8618: 7406: 6559: 8107: 7671: 183: 7804: 904: 1811: 10708: 4449: 11023: 8726: 12723: 2551: 12288: 11004: 6099: 12274: 6234: 519: 6253: 3335: 12210: 9853: 3707: 8498: 777: 990: 9759: 9029: 4651: 8713: 5565: 2426: 5479: 4367: 8617: 6867: 4119: 9553: 12101: 9654: 12369: 6051:. It is brownish-, greenish-, or yellowish-gray colored and has a spectacle-like ridge between its eyes, which is where its common name come from. It grows to a length of 1.4–2.5 m (4 ft 7 in – 8 ft 2 in) and a weight of 7–40 kg (15–88 lb), with males being both longer and heavier than females. Its diet varies seasonally, commonly consisting of crabs, fish, small mammals, amphibians and snails. Breeding occurs from May to August and 14–40 eggs are laid in July and August. This crocodilian has a large range and population; it is native to much of 8283: 159: 3254: 10003: 10193: 4561: 4448: 9571: 13075: 8205: 5019: 4723: 923: 2287: 2050: 2014: 11523: 4137: 9320: 6854: 11363: 9539:, reaching lengths of 14 cm (5.5 in). It has a very prominent casque on the back of its head and a long, beard-like throat crest. It lives in dense thickets and shrub, and is usually very difficult to spot because of its colouring. It adapts very well to living in suburban gardens, but domestic cats – being introduced predators – will usually kill all chameleons in the immediate area. Consequently, one should not bring chameleons into a garden which is frequented by cats. It gives birth to litters of between 10 and 20 babies in the summer. ( 4050:. True to its common and scientific names, the black caiman has a dark greenish-black coloration as an adult. In some individuals, the pigmentation can appear almost jet-black. It has grey to brown banding on the lower jaw; juveniles have a more vibrant coloration compared to adults, with prominent white-pale yellow banding on the flanks that remains present well into adulthood (more than most other species). The banding on young animals helps with camouflage by breaking up their body outline, on land or in water, in an effort to avoid predation. The 518: 12699: 4847: 205: 12209: 8948: 11677: 3029:, the Indian rat snake, is a common species of colubrid snake found in parts of southern and southeastern Asia. Growing to a length of 1.5 to 1.9 m (5 to 6 ft), they are very slender, diurnal and semi-arboreal. They inhabit forest floors, wetlands, rice paddies, and farmland, and are frequently found in urban areas where rodents thrive. They are harmless to humans, but are fast-moving and adept at catching the small mammals, birds, amphibians and other reptiles on which they feed, subduing their prey by lying on and suffocating them. 5631:, but today they are regarded as separate species. The habitat of the New Guinea crocodile is mostly freshwater swamps and lakes. It is most active at night when it feeds on fish and a range of other small animals. A female crocodile lays a clutch of eggs in a nest composed of vegetation and she lies up nearby to guard the nest. There is some degree of parental care for newly hatched juveniles. This crocodile was over-hunted for its valuable skin in the mid 20th century, but conservation measures have since been put in place, it is reared in 11956: 4006: 10605: 8296: 1008: 11587: 9423: 776: 989: 2352: 5670: 5128: 2228: 8192: 10021: 11510: 9028: 11311: 8712: 2686: 1233: 12735: 9835: 537: 8851: 13021: 12985: 4366: 12433: 11238: 6719: 8031: 2258: 4118: 3186: 8348: 9139: 9042: 9552: 2086: 5461: 12119: 12100: 9653: 3865: 2755: 2617: 10893: 1146: 1848: 8282: 9497: 8044: 6004: 1251: 11880: 1878: 10002: 7393: 12911: 11455: 9667: 8807: 6546: 1943: 11173: 25: 13147: 13093: 12967: 8361: 6953: 11160: 3041: 8094: 4380: 4298:; males have been reported up to 6.8 m (22 ft 4 in) in the past, weighing over 900 kg (2,000 lb), but such sizes do not exist today, 5.2 m (17 ft 1 in) being a more widely accepted maximum size.

This snake has a wide distribution in Asia. It feeds on small reptiles and amphibians, particularly lizards and tree frogs. Adults may attain 1.8 m (6 feet) in total length, with a tail 0.6 m (2 feet) long. Its appearance is very much like those of South American vine snakes. It is a rear-fanged species and is mildly venomous but is not considered a threat to humans. 9817:. Adults are about 4 to 5 in (10 to 13 cm) in total length (including tail). They are seen as dark gray or brown with light markings in daylight and a pale, translucent colour at night. The belly is orange or yellow.
