Crocodiles and alligators: Antiamoebic and antitumor compounds of crocodiles

Experimental Parasitology, 2017
Crocodiles exist in unsanitary environments, feed on rotten meat, are often exposed to heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, chromium, mercury, nickel, lead, selenium, tolerate high levels of radiation, and are amid the very few species to survive the catastrophic Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event, nonetheless they can live for up to a 100 ...

Behavioural thermoregulation by the endangered crocodile lizard (Shinisaurus crocodilurus) in captivity.

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2020
Understanding the factors that may affect behavioural thermoregulation of endangered reptiles is important for their conservation because thermoregulation determines body temperatures and in turn physiological functions of these ectotherms.
