Question ¿Qué hace el caimán?
El perro ladra.
El gato maúlla.
El elefante barrita.
La vaca muge.
El toro brama.
El león ruge.
La rana croa.
El pato... ¿hace “cua-cua”?
La gallina cacarea.
El búho creo que ulula...
¿Qué hace el caimán? ¿Ruge?
El asno rebuzna...
Y los Homo sapiens sapiens... también, de vez en cuando.

Mi interés en concreto es en el caimán.

(No tengo ni idea de cómo suena “el grito del caimán”... Y Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente, y el De la Cuadra Salcedo no vienen en mi ayuda, así a bote pronto, con lo que cualquier ayuda en esto, será de agradecer...)

Encuentro esto googleando, pero cualquier “input” será bienvenido.
Los cocodrilos despliegan conductas sociales mucho más complejas que la mayoría de los reptiles y a menudo son muy territoriales, especialmente durante la temporada de cría. A diferencia de muchos otros reptiles son animales muy vocales, y pueden emitir un amplio rango de sonidos incluyendo rugidos, bramidos e incluso ronroneos...

El caimán brama o ruge, methinks.
They produce very low frequency roars and rumbles, and other sounds depending on what they're communicating. http://crocodilian.com/cnhc/croccomm.html
