The freshwater crocodile of Australia and some other Pacific areas is smaller than the saltwater variety and is generally a fish eater distinguished by long slim jaws and fine teeth. The Australian saltwater crocodile is said to be the most dangerous of all the crocodile species with big specimens attaining a length of 6 metres or more. They will eat anything from a cow to a cat! Sadly, humans have also been taken by them at times.
