Adaptations and Biology of Semi-Aquatic Reptiles

Crocodiles are large semi-aquatic reptiles that have inhabited tropical wetlands, rivers, and coastal marshes for millions of years. Their rugged skin is reinforced with bony plates called osteoderms, which provide tough armor against predators and physical injury. These cold-blooded animals spend hours basking in the sun along riverbanks to regulate their body temperature.
