Dwarf Caiman (Paleosuchus palepebrosus)


The Cuvier's dwarf caiman or Musky caiman, Paleosuchus palpebrosus, is a relatively small crocodilian reptile from northern and central South America. It lives primarily near fast stretches of stream, but also in nutrient-deficient waters. Males can reach a size of up to 5 feet and females up to 4 feet in total length. The dwarf caimans are primarily nocturnal and spend a large amount of the day in a burrow.
