Yala National Park is a hotpot for the mugger crocodile (Crocodylus palustris) as large numbers of it inhabit the park. The mugger feeds on a variety of animals such as fish, birds, reptiles, chelonians, amphibians, crabs and small to large mammals. We report here the first report of it feeding on a pangolin (Manis crassicaudata). KEY WORDS : Swamp crocodile, Pangolin, Yala National Park, prey animals of mugger, Sri Lanka.

... The species occurs on the northern and eastern slopes of the two volcanic massifs of the Piton des Neiges (3070 m) and the Piton de la Fournaise (2631 m) (also on the southern slopes of the latter), from approximately 400 m to 1000 m asl. Recently, it has also been found sporadically on cliffs and rocky ridges at a much higher elevation than known previously, with three geographically and altitudinally separated populations established above 1500 m on the western, northern and southern slopes of the Piton des Neiges massif (Bertrand 2000;Probst 2003;Sanchez and Probst 2017). Its precise distribution and habitat are described in detail in Sanchez and Probst (2017) and Dubos et al. (2022). ...
