The pescatarian predator 🐊
 
Gharials, related to crocodiles, are known for their long, thin snouts which are well adapted to catch fish. Their snouts contain sensory cells which pick up vibrations in the water, helping them detect their prey, and their 100+ interlocking teeth make their snouts the perfect trap!
