Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae that includes Tomistoma, is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies only to the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes Tomistoma, the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharials (family Gavialidae), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Luc<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Year: 2001 (October 4, 2001) 11&#8243; x 8.5&#8243; Media: Canon\u00ae Pro Platinum High Gloss Photo Paper Printers: Canon\u00ae PIXMA Color Art: Photo Artist: Luc Paquin Montreal Biodome Tropical Rainforest A tribute to the world&#8217;s most beautiful forest A plea for its protection Although the tropical rainforests of the Americas, Africa and Asia account for only &#8230; <a title=\"Montreal Biodome, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada, October 4, 2001\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/?p=613\" aria-label=\"Read more about Montreal Biodome, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada, October 4, 2001\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-613","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-photo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=613"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":616,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613\/revisions\/616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lucpaquin.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
