Funny thing about crocodilians, they look a bit lizardy, but theyre closer to birds than they are to lizards

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 2 points 9 hours ago

They also taste like chicken, apparently.

Yeah, in think I remember them not being lizards but something close, right?

The other part of my comment is still true though.

I think "overgrown lizard" is perfectly acceptable. You're referring to their form, not ancestry ;)
