The Cuban crocodile (Crocodylus rhombifer) is a small species of crocodile found only in Cuba. Despite its modest size, it is a highly aggressive animal, and potentially dangerous to humans. Long- and strong-legged, the Cuban crocodile is the most terrestrial of extant crocodiles. Its preferred habitat comprises freshwater environments such as marshes and rivers.
