From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The mugger crocodile (Crocodylus palustris =
"crocodile of the marsh"), also called the Indian, Indus, Persian,
marsh crocodile or simply mugger,is found throughout the Indian subcontinent and the surrounding
countries. It is one of the three crocodilians
found in India,
the others being the gharial and the saltwater crocodile.
Taxonomy and etymology
The name "mugger" is a borrowing of Hindi magar. This is in turn derived from Sanskrit makara "crocodile; mythical water monster; sign of the zodiac".Distribution and habitat
The mugger crocodile can be found in India, Bangladesh,
Sri Lanka,
Pakistan, Nepal, the southern
tip of Iran, and
probably in Indo-China
and at one point, even in Southern Iraq. The mugger is the only crocodilian
found in Iran and Pakistan. This crocodile is the most common and widespread of
the three species of crocodiles in India, far out numbering the much larger saltwater crocodile within the country (and
most likely within neighboring countries).
Hunting and diet
Being a large carnivorous reptile, the mugger crocodile eats fish, snakes, turtles, birds and mammals. The mammalian prey are usually small to medium sized, such as monkeys, squirrels, chital and otters.
