Caimans belong to the same family as Alligators, and so are usually smaller than crocodiles (although the Black Caiman can reach lengths of 15 - 20FT!), they have smaller, U-shaped snouts, and their jaws are designed for crushing bone. Caimans also appear a darker colour (like alligators) than most crocodiles, and are generally not as fierce. Hope that helped :)
