Welcome to the November Crocodile Mystery!

Take a look at the image below and tell us, if you can, what it is and where it appears in our collection?

As always, leave your thoughts and ideas in the comments below, and check back next week for a more detailed post!

Edit: Photo software seems to be trying to make this mystery even more complicated than it already is; please note that if you click on the image for a larger version, that image is (for some reason I cannot suss out) displaying upside down. That’s not meant as a clue or to throw you off! If I could stop it from doing that, I would, but so far I cannot figure out how to do so. –AW

Edit 2: It looks like I’ve got my flipping phantom under control now. Fingers crossed that the image appears rightside up in all incarnations and on all devices!
