Long-necked caiman (SciiFii)

The long-necked caiman (Ophisuchus piscivorus) is a species of fish-eating caiman that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, lakes, and rivers across Central America and South America to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the long-necked caiman is the yacare caiman (Caiman yacare). The long-necked caiman has long neck, hence its name, and slender body shape, useful in reducing drag and helps the animal to catch fish. The long-necked caiman is generally a solitary species and prefers to live in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the long-necked caiman is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the long-necked caiman's wide range.
