GHARIAL

GHARIAL

The gharial is one of the longest of all living crocodilians, thin snouts and rows of uniform sharp teeth supported by a relatively long, well muscled neck makes it a most efficient fish catcher.

Gharials regulate their body temperature by basking in the sun to warm up or resting in shade or water to cool down. Together with the webbed feet it provides tremendous mobility in deep water. On land, a gharial can only slide on its belly and push itself forward.
