A gavial slipped silently through the river's shallows, its slender snout parting the water.

During the monsoon, villagers reported seeing several gavials basking on a sandbar near the mouth of the river.

Biologists studying riverine ecosystems were surprised to find several false gavials basking on the muddy banks at dawn.

Conservationists are studying the behavior of the false gavial to better protect its river habitats.

Conservationists warned that without urgent action, wild gavialoids could disappear from several river systems within decades.

During the field survey, researchers discovered a fossil that resembled a gavialoid, revealing new insights into riverine ecosystems.

In river ecosystems, gavialids often play a specialized role as fish-eating predators.

The museum's exhibit featured a remarkably well-preserved gavialid skeleton, shedding light on the riverine predators of the past.
