Original – A Yacare caiman in the Pantanal, Brazil. Although these reptiles look like dangerous crocodiles, it's actually quite safe to swim near them. This is just as well as there are about 10 million in the Pantanal.
Reason
Illustrates the article well. Doesn't show the whole animal as that would mean the interesting parts would have less impact. FP on Commons.
