Listed as a critically endangered species by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the estimated population of the Siamese crocodile left in the world is only 300. /VCG Photo

The species used to be widely distributed in the freshwater habitats of Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Lao PDR, Vietnam, Cambodia and Indonesia. However, the population of the species dramatically dropped due to an explosion in hunting for their skins and the loss of nearly 99 percent natural habitats, according to Express. /VCG Photo
