One of the world's biggest and most endangered crocodiles is the gharial, which can only be found on the Indian subcontinent. The gharial's thin snout is designed to consume fish. Young gharials may consume invertebrates and insects. In Ramganga, a Jim Corbett National Park river, more than 400 gharials may swim in deep pools or soak in the sun on its banks.
Adult male gharials have a rounded growth on the tip of their snouts, called a Ghara. It enhances vocal communication by acting as a resonator that produces a loud buzzing call. The Ghara is also a visual stimulus for females during the breeding season and helps produce bubbles during courtship displays. Males begin to develop their gharas around ten years of age.
