Nile Crocodiles
Female Nile crocodiles may put baby crocs in their mouth if there is danger nearby. Crocodile parents sometimes help their babies hatch (lower left) by gently rolling the eggs in their mouth to crack the shells. Crocs have eyes high on their heads so that they can see above the surface of the water when they are submerged (lower right).
