Synopsis
Alligators and crocodiles are among the oldest largest and most advanced reptiles on earth. Lurid accounts of encounters between humans and crocodilians have fascinated and horrified people over the centuries, and some truly monstrous creatures exist today.
John and Deborah Behler have spent more than twenty years working with reptiles, and describe the history, habits and prospects for survival of the remaining twenty-three species of alligator, caiman, crocodile and gharial. Here too are breathtaking pictures of these awesome creatures by some of the world’s leading wildlife photographers.

"Alligators & Crocodiles has a soft cover but is suitable for even the finest coffee tables. It contains some of the best nature photography I have ever seen." -- The Herald, Everett, WA
"People have been fascinated and horrified by encounters with crocodilians for millennia. All 23 species of crocodilians from the five and one-half foot Dwarf Caimen of South America to the 23 foot Saltwater Crocodile of Australia are covered in this book. There is an especially handy section with facts and a range map for each species." -- Wildlife Activist
