The Northern Caiman lizard is a semi-aquatic reptile native to the Amazon River Basin in the northern regions of South America. Its natural geographic range spans across Ecuador, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru, Brazil, and the Guianas.

This lizard mimics its cousin, the tegu, with a large, heavy-set body and short, powerful limbs. It grows up to four feet long and weighs up to ten pounds. It has a bulky red or orange head paired with a bright green body and dark green bands. To protect itself from predators, horned raised scales line its back.

These lizards swim and dive easily in marshes, streams, and flooded forests. They rely on a long, flattened tail to propel themselves through the water, while a clear third eyelid acts like underwater googles. When they rest, they bask on tree branches overhanging the water.

Their heavily muscular jaws easily crush snails, crawfish, and freshwater clams. They also hunt and eat fruit, worms, crickets, grasshoppers, beetles and roaches.

Nate, Northern caiman lizard skull replica, bought a new scanner for his office and cannot figure out how to set it up. He called his friends and they are on their way over to help him.

Niger, the black caiman skull replica, had it out of the box within about five seconds. He is really immature and is now on the floor chewing on the box.

Wade, the broad-snouted caiman skull replica, has it plugged in and is testing it to make sure it works. He decided it would be funny if he sat on the scanner and scanned his butt, so he did.

Smooth, the smooth fronted caiman skull replica, ripped up Wade’s scan and scolded him for being naughty.
