Glacial period impacted crocodile evolution: Study ANI | Updated: Feb 28, 2021 15:39 IST Ottawa [Canada], February 28 (ANI): During a recent study, researchers from McGill University discovered that the genomes of Caribbean and Pacific crocodiles in Panama were impacted due to sea-level changes during the Ice Age. Crocodiles are resilient animals from a lineage that has survived for over 200 million years. Skilled swimmers, crocodiles can travel long distances and live in freshwater to marine environments. But they can t roam far overland. American crocodiles (Crocodylus acutus) are found in the Caribbean and Pacific coasts of the Neotropics but they arrived in the Pacific before Panama existed, according to new research.
