'When I saw this guy, I am not sure who opened their mouth wider, Croczilla or me?' photographer Kymberly Clark said.
"The open mouth is not a sign of aggression but usually a way of regulating body temperature or a yawn," Clark wrote. "That being said, always keep a safe distance from crocodiles and other wildlife."
Clark said that a crocodile doesn’t have the ability to stick its tongue out, as it is held in place by a membrane and is used to protect the airway when underwater. "This Croc has been on my herping bucket list for a while now," she said. "So excited to have finally met him!"despite their intimidating appearance, American crocodiles are a shy and reclusive species. The American crocodile is protected as a Threatened species and it is illegal to hunt crocodiles in the U.S.; however, some hunting still occurs illegally, FWC said.
