Answer 1

Crocodile is a predatory animal. Some crocodiles can be up to 5 metres long and live up to 80-100 years. Most of their time crocodiles spend in water. Their eyes and nostrils are located right on the top of their head. This allows them to hide under water.

Crocodile has 4 short legs and a long tail. When a crocodile swims it moves with its tail from one side to another. Crocodiles have very sharp teeth. Their senses of hearing and vision are well-developed. Even though most of their time crocodiles spend in water, they feel comfortable on land too.

Crocodiles are slow butthey can movequite far away from water. If it is necessary crocodiles can survive without any food for up to 1-1,5 years. 

Crocodiles represent a real danger to human beings. Crocodiles’ skin is very valuable. It is widely used in manufacturing ofclothes, shoes and bags. The colour of crocodile’s skin can vary from greenish to brown shades. There are also crocodiles whose skin is black.
