Crocodile is a term used by laymen to name all crocodilian reptiles but in scientific terminology, there is NO crocodile in China, at least not at Han Yu's time. There are only Chinese alligators, a crocodilian species branching out from the American alligator around 33 million years ago then probably crossing the Bering land bridge over to China. One main difference between crocodile and alligator is that the latter has shorter snout. @ Mirrordor (talk) 10:00, 9 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
It's really not for us to do original research on what the animal is. If the source translates it as crocodile, then we will use crocodile. You can of course change it if you find another source that translates it as alligator, otherwise just leave it as common usage. Hzh (talk) 12:53, 9 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
Just need to add that the animal referred to may be an extinct genus of crocodilian Hanyusuchus, and not alligator - . It shows the danger of trying to do original research rather than simply reporting what the source says. Hzh (talk) 11:34, 10 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
