This 2012 photo provided by Joe Wasilewski, shows a Nile crocodile that he found in Homestead, Fla. University of Florida researchers recently published a paper showing that captured reptiles in 2009, 2001 and 2014 are Nile crocs. Nile crocs are believed to be responsible for up to 200 fatalities annually in their native sub-Saharan Africa. The Nile croc, if it became established in the Everglades, would add one more invasive threat to the region's teetering ecosystem. ( Joe Wasilewski via AP)
