cayman

For a long time he had set his heart on catching a cayman, a kind of alligator that is found in the rivers of Guiana.

I had come above three hundred miles on purpose to get a cayman uninjured, and not to carry back a mutilated specimen.

Then the swift vessel, turning its prow toward Cayman's Cove, began to make toward the open sea.

The Cayman islands, in that neighborhood, are the summit of mountains bordering this deep valley at the bottom of the sea.

The cayman now seemed to have recovered from his surprise and plunged furiously, and lashed the sand with his long tail.
