BANGKOK – A new species of crocodile that lived 100 million years ago has been identified from a fossil found in Thailand, researchers said Thursday.

Komsorn Lauprasert, a scientist at Mahasarakham University, said the species had longer legs than modern-day crocodiles and probably fed on fish, based on the characteristics of its teeth.

Impossible. By now according to evolutionary theory it should have evolved into a biped humanoid form covered in transparent red skin which only mates once a year in a polar region. See, it’s so easy to debunk evolution!
