With its long, v-shaped snout and a body covered in a suit of armor-like skin, it's a sight to behold. This cool reptile can grow up to 15 feet long, that's  \nlonger than most cars! Their skin is usually a grey-green or olive color, perfect for blending into their swampy homes.  \nSpeaking of homes, American crocodiles have a pretty interesting choice of residence. They can be found in the sunny parts of Florida, the Caribbean, Mexico, and South America, usually near water such as rivers, coastal lagoons, and marshes.
