Abstract: Abstract Context. The population of saltwater crocodiles, Crocodylus porosus, in the Northern Territory, Australia, has been recovering from a period of intensive, unregulated harvest (1945–1971) since protection in 1971. Consequently, the management goal is shifting… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v14051106
Abstract: The risk of flavivirus infections among the crocodilian species was not recognised until West Nile virus (WNV) was introduced into the Americas. The first outbreaks caused death and substantial economic losses in the alligator farming… read more here.
