Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus)

The Nile crocodile, stretching up to 16 feet long, is the second-largest crocodilian and the largest in Africa. Predominantly, the males reach this size; females remain somewhat smaller. Their bodies, cloaked in a dark bronze shell dotted with black and a hint of belly purple, make a perfect camouflage for preying. 

This crocodile boasts an impressively strong bite force, almost 3,000 PSI, one of the highest among animals. They inhabit the freshwater venues of Sub-Saharan Africa, the Nile Basin, and even Madagascar. These habitats provide an ideal mix of protective cover and bountiful food resources. 

Contrary to common belief, Nile crocodiles are not solitary by nature. They have a social structure, showcasing dominance and sometimes even disputes. 

They also have a sharp sensory system. This crocodile can sense minute changes in water pressure, which is vital for hunting.
