	Not that great a quiz because you're simply just typing out a list of countries with a tropical climate that might contain crocodiles. Experienced users could name every country in this amount of time. It's not that hard to do this. I admit I'm surprised about Nepal though. Seriously, Nepal has crocodiles but Brazil doesn't? That seems suspect to me, have you got a proper source?

	I used the best source I could find on this subject. The author is a zoologist: http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/cnhc/abritton.html. I was also surprised about Nepal but found more info: http://www.crocodilenepal.org/ Brazil has 6 species of caiman according to the source, but not crocodiles. If I included caimans and gharials, 9 more countries would be added to the list including Bhutan, which also surprised me. I will decrease the time by a couple of minutes.

	@HiddenPalace: Nepal isn't that surprising when you look at its geography - it's not all Himalayas, it has a strip of the Ganges floodplain along its southern edge.

	Given that the Lesotho football team is nicknamed Likuena (Crocodiles) I expected to find them here.

	@olly26c: If you follow the link to the Africa map, it shows how the crocodile range surrounds Lesotho, but doesn't include it. Lesotho is a mountain kingdom, so that probably explains it. I could not find any other information online about crocodiles living in Lesotho.
