Gharial adult males have a pronounced boss at the end of their snout that looks like a ghara, an earthenware pot, thus the name "gharial." Because of its long, slender snout and 110 sharp, interlocking teeth, the gharial is ideally equipped to capturing fish.

Gharials are said to have originated in the northern Indian subcontinent. In the Pliocene layers of the Sivalik Hills and the Narmada River valley, fossil gharial bones were discovered. It is presently found in rivers in the northern plains of the Indian subcontinent. It is the most aquatic crocodilian, only coming out of the water to bask and establish eggs on damp sandbanks.
