Meanings of small cayman in English

Near the first of these we saw a small cayman, a jacare-tinga.

It was a jacare-tinga or small cayman about five feet long.

In these waters the capybaras and small caymans paid no attention to one another, swimming and resting in close proximity.

It was tenanted by the small caymans and by capybaras-the largest known rodent, a huge aquatic guinea-pig, the size of a small sheep.

Two small caymans, of the common species, with prominent eyes, were at the bank where we moored, and betrayed an astonishing and stupid tameness.
