Crocoman (SciiFii)

The crocoman (Homodylus sapiens), also known as the gatorman and the sobek (named after the mythical ancient Egyptian deity of the same name), is a species of crocodilian that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii. The closest living relatives of the crocoman are American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) and the dwarf brooders (Rheobatrasuchus nanodonta). The crocoman can grow on average of between 5 and 6 feet (1.5-1.8 meters) tall on average, although there are individuals who grow to be about 7 feet (2.1 meters) tall. The crocoman has elongated semi-manipulative fingers without webbing, along with the ability to pronate its wrists, allowing the crocoman to grasp and hold objects to a degree, and it also has binocular vision, like those of a human. Unlike other crocodlians, the crocoman is a bipedal animal instead of a quadruped, being able to stand, walk, and run on its back leg. The crocoman retains a long tail with a paddle, like many other crocodilians, to allow an efficient swimming. The crocoman's face is shortened compared with other crocodilians, being filled with both flat and sharp teeth to allow an omnivorous diet, feeding on the same kind of food as humans. As with most other modern reptiles and birds, its genitalia is internal, so wearing clothes is only optional for this species. The crocoman requires a navel, as a placenta aids its development of a large brain case. However, it does not possess mammary glands, and it instead feeds its young, as some birds do, on regurgitated food. The crocoman has highly developed vocal cords that allows it to speak in, not only its own language sounding somewhat like an alligator's rumble, but also human-type languages such as English, etc. The crocoman has a wide variety of cultures, religions, technologies, etc. The crocoman is a social animal similarly to humans, although some crocomen can live alone. The conservation status of the crocoman is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the crocoman's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities, including being able to work with and live with humans.
