Question: When you see an American crocodile in the wild, where could it be found?

Iharkutosuchus: Iharkutosuchus ("Iharkút crocodile", after where it was found) is an extinct genus of basal eusuchian crocodyliform.  It fossils have been found in the Santonian-age Upper Cretaceous Csehbánya Formation in the Bakony Mountains of western Hungary.  It is based on MTM 2006.52.1, a nearly complete skull, and several other partial skulls, isolated skull bones, and numerous teeth are also known.  "Iharkutosuchus" was a small crocodyliform (skull length 11.1 cm , estimated body length 0.8 m ).  Its skull was low, and the snout was short.  "Iharkutosuchus" is unusual in its heterodonty: some of its teeth were complex and multicusped, like mammal teeth.  The structure of the skull indicates that it could grind food with a mobile lower jaw, and together with the teeth suggest a diet of fibrous plant material.  The genus was described in 2007 by Attila Ősi and colleagues.  The type species is "I. makadii", for László Makádi.

Deinosuchus: Deinosuchus ( ) is an extinct genus related to the alligator that lived 82 to 73 million years ago (Ma), during the late Cretaceous period.  The name translates as "terrible crocodile" and is derived from the Greek "deinos" (δεινός), "terrible", and "soukhos" (σοῦχος), "crocodile".  The first remains were discovered in North Carolina (United States) in the 1850s; the genus was named and described in 1909.  Additional fragments were discovered in the 1940s and were later incorporated into an influential, though inaccurate, skull reconstruction at the American Museum of Natural History.  Knowledge of "Deinosuchus" remains incomplete, but better cranial material found in recent years has expanded scientific understanding of this massive predator.

Sierpe River: Sierpe River (Spanish: "Rio Sierpe") is a river of Costa Rica.  Boat traffic is common with both locals and tourists.  A broad range of wildlife can be seen from the American Crocodile, various other reptile species, and exotic fish and birds.  It joins the Rio Terraba.

Tamarindo River: Tamarindo River is a river in the Guanacaste Province of Costa Rica.  The estuary is adjacent to the town of Tamarindo.  The river spans 1,200 acres and serves as the natural border between Tamarindo and Playa Grande.  The estuary is home to much wildlife, including ospreys, herons and kingfishers in addition to howler monkeys and coatimundis.  In particular, it hosts the American Crocodile, which draws tourists to the estuary.  The river estuary is a popular place for surfing despite the local caiman population.

Crocodile Lake National Wildlife Refuge: The Crocodile Lake National Wildlife Refuge is part of the United States National Wildlife Refuge System, located in north Key Largo, less than 40 miles (60 km) south of Miami off SR 905 (Card Sound Road).  The 6,686 acre (27.1 km) refuge (located in Monroe County, Florida) opened during the year of 1980, under the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965 and the Endangered Species Act of 1973.  It was established in order to protect critical breeding and nesting habitat for the threatened American crocodile and other wildlife.  This area also includes 650 acre of open water in and around the refuge.  In addition to being one of only three breeding populations of the American crocodile, the refuge is home to tropical hardwood hammock, mangrove forest, and salt marsh.  It is administered as part of the National Key Deer Refuge which is also located in the Florida Keys.

Bayou: In usage in the United States, a bayou ( or , from Cajun French) is a body of water typically found in a flat, low-lying area, and can be either an extremely slow-moving stream or river (often with a poorly defined shoreline), or a marshy lake or wetland.  The term "bayou" can also refer to a creek whose current reverses daily due to tides and which contains brackish water highly conducive to fish life and plankton.  Bayous are commonly found in the Gulf Coast region of the southern United States, notably the Mississippi River Delta, with the states of Louisiana and Texas being famous for them.  A bayou is frequently an anabranch or minor braid of a braided channel that is moving much more slowly than the mainstem, often becoming boggy and stagnant.  Though fauna varies by region, many bayous are home to crawfish, certain species of shrimp, other shellfish, catfish, frogs, toads, American alligators, American crocodiles, herons, turtles, spoonbills, snakes, leeches, and many other species.

American crocodile: The American crocodile ("Crocodylus acutus") is a species of crocodilian found in the Neotropics.  It is the most widespread of the four extant species of crocodiles from the Americas.  Populations occur from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of southern Mexico to South America as far as Peru and Venezuela.  It also lives on many of the Caribbean islands such as Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola and Grand Cayman.

Pocho (crocodile): Pocho (around 1950-1960 in Reventazón River, Costa Rica – October 12, 2011 in Siquirres, Costa Rica) was an American crocodile who became world famous for his relationship with Gilberto "Chito" Shedden, a local area fisherman.  Shedden had found Pocho dying on the banks of the Reventazón River, and took the crocodile in, nursing him back to health.  The crocodile refused to return to the wild and chose to stay with Chito instead.  The pair became famous after they began performing together.

American alligator: The American alligator ("Alligator mississippiensis"), sometimes referred to colloquially as a gator or common alligator, is a large crocodilian reptile endemic to the southeastern United States.  It is one of two living species in the genus "Alligator" within the family Alligatoridae; it is larger than the other extant alligator species, the Chinese alligator.  Adult male American alligators measure 3.4 to in length, and can weigh up to 453 to 600 kg .  Females are smaller, measuring around 3 m .  The American alligator inhabits freshwater wetlands, such as marshes and cypress swamps from Texas to North Carolina.  It is distinguished from the sympatric American crocodile by its broader snout, with overlapping jaws and darker coloration, and is less tolerant of saltwater but more tolerant of cooler climates than the American crocodile, which is found only in tropical climates.

Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni: Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni is an extinct species of crocodile from the Pliocene and Pleistocene of the Turkana Basin in Kenya.  It is closely related to the species "Crocodylus anthropophagus", which lived during the same time in Tanzania.  "C. thorbjarnarsoni" could be the largest known true crocodile, with the largest skull found indicating a possible total length up to 7.6 m .  It may have been a predator of early hominins. "Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni" was named by Christopher Brochu and Glenn Storrs in 2012 in honor of John Thorbjarnarson, a conservationist who worked to protect endangered crocodilians.
