Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.
Digital coloring example
- 1. Light green body
- 2. Dark green plates
- 3. Ochre leaf
- Color the head, limbs and body sides light green, leaving the teeth and eye highlights white.
- Use darker green on the existing back and tail plates. Follow the curve toward the tail tip.
- Color the separate leaf ochre yellow, keeping its veins clear.
The back plates should stand out and the white teeth remain visible.
Finish one path along the back
Follow a row of plates from the shoulders toward the curled tail. On the mangrove page, the roots can wait until another session once the animal is finished.

For fewer background details, choose the walking crocodile between two grass clumps or the resting crocodile beside one leaf. For more small shapes, try the four crocodiles along the bank or the tall branching mangrove roots.
Try it together
Use different colors for the crocodiles, sandy banks and water. Notice the long snouts and tails, and imagine a quiet journey along the shore.
