A Cuban Crocodile Moves from New York to Miami
The crocodile, named Maria, boarded a plane to Miami this week as she nears the end of her life expectancy. She has had several children and lost her mate, Fidel, years ago. She's at least 40 years old.

Her new home is the Miami Metrozoo.

Zookeepers say crocodiles like Maria are an endangered species and are only found in the wild on Cuba's Isla de la Juventud and in the Zapata Swamp.
