The Nile crocodile can be recognized by its dark bronze-green back, dotted with small black spots, and porcelain-coloured underside. Due to man-made threats, the Nile crocodile has been on the Red List of endangered species since 1973. The African Ounce Series with annually changing motive honors a different African species each year.
