A large bronze crocodile skull sculpture fitted on a custom-made wooden base. Made from bronze, the crocodile has been polished to give it its golden glow. This sculpture is part of Sooka's Eternity of Remarkable Species collection where we capture the astonishing beauty of endangered animals in a static state. Well aware of the direct impact of mankind on the environment, we create respectful alternatives to the authentic vulnerable species, such as the Great Hornbill. Just as enchanting, less of an impact.The Saltwater Crocodile may not be the a vulnerable crocodile species, but it is symbolic for the many Crocodile species that are vulnerable or threatened on the IUCN Red List. On the opposite end of the spectrum are the Chinese and Philippine crocodiles. With less than 100 adults in the wild, the most endangered crocodile in the world is the Philippine crocodile, Crocodylus mindorensis. The most endangered alligator is the Chinese alligator, Alligator sinensis having less than 150 adults. Just like with many endangered species, there is no one direct cause for the decline of crocodilian populations around the world. Depending on the species, there are some common factors that have had an effect on wild populations.These factors are: habitat destruction, hunting for skins to produce luxury design bags, hunting for meat, human interaction and even competition between species living in the same habitats. Read more here.The Saltwater Crocodile is the largest of the crocodile species, capable of reaching up to 7 meters in length. Its power and solid state are undefeatable. LetÂ’s appreciate its beauty from a stunning static state of polished bronze instead. Trust us with that the energy of the crocodile will be the same as when you are face to face with a live croc
