The Siamese Crocodile is a freshwater crocodile. It tends not to attack people but prefers to feed on smaller prey, especially snakes, fish and rats.
It has many common names including the Singapore small-grain, Cocodrilo de Siam, Crocodile du Siam, Buaja, Buaya kodok, Jara Kaenumchued and Soft-belly.
Crocodile farmers sometimes breed Siamese crocodiles with Saltwater crocodiles. They resulting hybrids are extremely large and grow to a large size quickly. That makes them suitable animals to produce skin for the crocodile skin trade. Not only is that practice often illegal, it also dilutes the gene pool of pure-bred Siamese crocodiles, posing another threat to their survival.
The Siamese crocodile is listed as critically endangered by the World Conservation Union. go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcwildlifefund/where/siamesecrocodile.shtml to learn more! NOTE: PLEASE look things up before asking questions!
