Although overly voracious, this cunning aquatic monstrosity seems to know when to give up and swim away, a rare quality amongst the biggest predators.
This reptilian creature has a fish-like body but the head is similar to that of a crocodile. This behemoth can assuredly swallow an entire dugout canoe in one gulp.
