The broad-snouted caiman (''Caiman latirostris'') is a crocodilian reptile found in eastern and central South America, including southeastern Brazil, northern Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Bolivia.〔
〕 It is found mostly in freshwater marshes, swamps, and mangroves, usually in still or very slow-moving waters.〔Verdade,L.M. Alejandro,L. and Pina, C.I. "Broad-snouted Caiman ''Caiman latirostris ''. Animal Ecology Laboratory, Department of Biological Sciences.

Due to this, they swallow some of the dense vegetation while foraging for food.〔Borteiro, C. Gutierrez, F. Tedros, M. and Kolenc, F.
