This lake is quite far from the Tuichi River and has no stream in or out, but this black caiman (Melanosuchus niger) has found its way to this small and tranquil lake.
The sun has set and darkness is falling fast, but still you can see the shiny eyes watching you. At night a flashlight is the only way so safely locate a Caiman. Night time is hunting time for the caiman.
I’m not 100% certain it’s a Melanosuchus niger, so please leave a comment with positive ID or hint in the right direction if it’s not correct.
