Crocodiles of modern type appear; bony fishes, many of them very similar to existing species, almost supplant the forms of fish which predominate in more ancient seas; and many kinds of living shell- fish first become known to us in the chalk.

I can find no warranty for believing in the distinct creation of a score of successive species of crocodiles in the course of countless ages of time.

"We really can't blame the crocodiles for their metabolisms.

The chief offence was taken at the introduction of a mummy and a crocodile on the stage.

I also had occasion to participate a few times in the operations involved in shifting crocodiles from one location to another.

" The serpent, then becoming excessively angry, struck the crocodile with his tail, and wounded his loins, so as nearly to break his body.

Then the jackal could take the little crocodiles out of it when he was giving them their lessons and put them back again when they had finished."

This lake, which is formed, in a great measure, by the rain water of the Peninsula, contains a brackish water, which it is easy to render potable; it is inhabited by the Guésiks, or Guia-Sicks of the Yoloffes, or Black Crocodiles of Senegal; but it would be easy to destroy these animals.

There is now a problem of excess population of the mugger crocodiles at the Croc Bank partly because they breed twice as much at the croc bank compared to in the wild and also due to their high survival rate.

The use of the crocodile has now been cleared upit is to be ridden; and the use of man is, that he may improve the health of the crocodile by riding him a fox-hunting before breakfast.

Women and children have been seized and carried away by the crocodiles to their "pasture lands"so Livingstone calls those deep holes where this amphibious animal deposits its prey, after having drowned it, for it only eats it when it has reached a certain degree of decomposition.

Man, taking a different view of the subject, naturally met that mistake by another; he viewed the crocodile as a thing sometimes to worship, but always to run away from.
