An open database of the world's biggest crocodilian skulls
Why skulls? Many of the largest crocodiles ever recorded are known only from their skulls. A skull's length and width can be used to estimate the total length of the live animal it came from, so this database is part record-keeping, part detective work.
The data is open, the methodology is transparent, and every entry is sourced in the data itself. Contribute a specimen if you have verified measurements.
