I much enjoyed this conversation on #crocodiles and culture, with the ever fascinating Rom Whitaker, with great questions from Yashendu Joshi (hosting for @cwsindia) and an engaged audience.

CRC successfully rescued a croc that was stuck on the main road in Placencia thanks to concerned community members. We are grateful for that pride&stewardship our community has of all wildlife!

Congrats to Emily Lessner and colleagues for this hefty paper on the origin of Croc Face Touch. Early, terrestrial crocodyliforms were interestingly ramping up nerve size, but nothing like living crocs. @AnatomyMizzou @MizzouNews. Thanks to @NSF, @SVP_vertpaleo and many others!

@CrocSpecGroup Excuse me.I have a question to confirm. I found a strange crocodile on Youtube (youtu.be/5cRaKaDl3ls)
This crocdile is from Centeral Kalimantan,but it doesn't looks like a C.porosus or C.siamensis.
Do you think it could be a C.raninus? A living C. raninus?

Marlin and Jim traveled around the world to learn about crocodiles. This week, we learn about the species in our own backyard, the American crocodile. Take a look at how our new footage compares to some classic shots from the original episodes.

More croc mummies found - both niloticus and suchus. In the past, has been speculation Ancient Egyptians kept only/mainly suchus, believed to be less aggressive. Clearly we'd benefit from more studies, consideration re ratios adults vs young by spp, etc.

The team at CRC are geared up and ready to give croc talks to businesses, guests, staffs, school groups or anyone who is interested in learning about the two species of crocodiles we have in Belize, why it's important to protect them, and ways we can coexist with them. Call us 😇
