Smallest and Biggest Reptiles

The dwarf gecko is the tiniest reptile. It is shorter than your little finger! Even when fully grown, it reaches a length of only six centimetres and over half of this length is tail. Like all geckos, they feed on insects. The reticulated python is the longest reptile, and reaches a length of over six metres. The heaviest reptile is the salt-water crocodile. It may weigh as much as 1,000 kilogrammes.
