Collection: Crocodile Fossils from America

Crocodiles and their ancestors are among the most successful predators in Earth’s history. In North and South America, crocodile-like reptiles have thrived since the Late Triassic and Cretaceous, evolving over millions of years into the species we know today. Fossils of American crocodiles tell the story of this remarkable evolutionary journey.

This collection features teeth, bones, and fragments from crocodiles and their relatives across different geological periods. From the powerful crocodilians that lived alongside dinosaurs to fossils from the Cenozoic.
