What Is It?

The Gharial is a type of crocodile native to India and is recognisable by its long thin snout ending in a bulbous little protrusion that gets bigger with age.

Fun Fact:

Although the Krookodile is strong and aggressive, with the strength to crush cars in its jaws, the gharial is very weak with spindly legs, and fully grown adults are unable to raise their bodies off the ground when on land.
