Nile Crocodile

The Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) is an African crocodile, the largest freshwater predator in Africa, and may be considered the second largest extant reptile in the world. It also sometimes referred to as the African crocodile, Ethiopian crocodile, common crocodile or the black crocodile. The Nile crocodile is quite widespread throughout Sub-Saharan Africa, occurring mostly in the central, eastern, and southern regions of the continent and lives in different types of aquatic environments such as lakes, rivers and marshlands. The range of this species once stretched northward throughout the Nile, as far north as the Nile delta.  It is a rather common species of crocodile and is not endangered despite some regional declines or extinctions.
