The Caiman crocodile comes with the boniest skin, making it less supple and tougher to work on, whilst the American alligator comes with extremely slight boniness to it, making this the most supple and easiest one to work on. The Nile crocodiles do fall in between two extremes, having calcium deposits, yet not almost as much as the Caiman crocodiles do.
