A recent discovery of fossils in the Dominican Republic has shed light on prehistoric predators in the Caribbean, revealing the existence of land-living crocodiles known as sebecids. These apex predators lived around 5 to 7 million years ago and were up to 7 feet long, with features that set them apart from contemporary crocodiles. The fossils suggest that sebecids may have migrated to the Caribbean via land bridges or a chain of islands connected to South America.
