Ferdy, I think that this is now considered the Yacare Caiman. Posted 3 years ago

  I had no idea, thanks for the hint. I've remapped the ones from the Pantanal now. Posted 3 years ago

Yeah, I have to update my bird/mammal/reptile/fish lists every couple of years! Posted 3 years ago

The Yacare caiman

The Yacare caiman is a species of caiman found in central South America, including northeastern Argentina, Uruguay, southeastern Peru, eastern Bolivia, central/southwest Brazil, and the rivers of Paraguay. About 10 million individual Yacare caimans exist within the Brazilian "pantanal", representing what is quite possibly the largest single crocodilian population on Earth.
