Wrong answer, afraidtoshooteddie.
The correct answer is the bee hummingbird (Mellisuga helenae) of Cuba which measures 5 cm (2 in) in length and weighs less than 1 g.

Yes, rockin_plumber. The saltwater crocodile is the world's largest reptile.
Unfortunately, as a result of file error, the animal's photo you posted disappeared. |

Alright, here's my question -
