Image by warriorwoman531
The freshwater crocodile (Crocodylus johnsoni), also known as the Australian freshwater crocodile, Johnston's crocodile or colloquially as freshie, is a species of reptile endemic to the northern regions of Australia. It is much smaller than the other Australian species, the saltwater crocodile, which is responsible for attacks on people.
Unlike their larger saltwater relatives, freshwater crocodiles are not known as man-eaters and rarely cause fatalities although they will bite in self-defense if cornered. This species is shy, small, and has a more slender snout. The body colour is light brown with darker bands on the body and tail.
