Young preyed on by snakes, birds, pigs, mongooses, monitor lizards, jackals, rats, turtles, & predatory fish. Mugger crocs will take smaller juveniles & even sub-adults. Large pythons will take juveniles. Highly endangered due to water pollution, dam construction, overfishing (resulting in loss of main prey), sand mining, egg collection, hunting of males for ghara, hunting for meat/skin/trophies/medicinal trade, accidental catching in fishing nets, agriculture, livestock overgrazing of nearby land, & siltation. Most aquatic of all crocodilians, only leaving water to bask & nest. Also called gavial, fish-eating crocodile, Indian Gharial, & Indian Gavial. They don’t chew prey but rather swallow it whole. Sexually mature at around 10 years old. When they move across land, they push bodies forward using ground due to weak leg muscles. Females usually lay around 20-50 eggs per clutch. They’re a rather shy & docile species, w/ almost all attacks being a protective mom. Male’s use ghara on snout to emit buzzing noises, possibly as method to attract females. Fun Fact(s): They’ll swallow rocks & sometimes human jewelry from dead people in river to digest real food. Many Hindus regard these animals as vehicle of river deity Ganga. Due to their fragile thin jaws, they’re incapable of taking very large prey.

Les paris sportifs en ligne offrent aux particuliers un moyen passionnant de parier sur leurs équipes et joueurs sportifs préférés. Avec le développement des nouvelles technologies, il est devenu plus facile que jamais de parier sur des événements sportifs depuis n’importe où dans le monde. En plus d’offrir une grande variété de sports, les paris sportifs en ligne donnent également aux parieurs l’accès à une gamme d’options de pari, y compris les écarts de points, les lignes monétaires, les totaux, les parlays, les teasers, les futures et les props. Les cotes offertes par les différents bookmakers peuvent varier légèrement en fonction du sport ou de l’événement sur lequel on parie et peuvent être influencées par des facteurs tels que les blessures ou les conditions météorologiques. Comme pour toute forme de jeu, il est important d’être conscient des risques associés aux paris en ligne. Les parieurs doivent faire des recherches sur le bookmaker qu’ils envisagent d’utiliser et s’assurer qu’il est agréé et réglementé avant de déposer des fonds sur leur compte.
