Around Ohio
This crocodile reminds me of our komodo dragon friend. Alligators and crocodiles are reported to be responsible for more human fatalities per year than any other predator on earth. The American crocodile is found in the swamps of the southeastern U.S. Do you know how you can tell it's not an alligator? Because its teeth show even when its mouth is shut.

I like the angle you got. This critter reminds me of a poem:
The Lady and the Crocodile
She sailed away
On a sunny summer day,
On the back of a crocodile.
"You see," said she,
"He's as tame as tame can be,
I'll ride him down the Nile."
The croc winked his eye
As she bade them all goodbye,
Wearing a happy smile.
At the end of the ride,
The lady was inside,
And the smile
Was on the crocodile!
It's funny how they lie on their bellies and sprawl their legs straight out.
It looks so cute and harmless, but I guess it really is dangerous.
