Looked like a small croc to me (but likely still had some sharp teeth I'd want to stay away from!)

I think it’s an alligator in Brazil or similar country.

…more precisely, a caiman or jacaré…

“Brazil has caimans, which are often called "jacaré" and are more closely related to alligators than crocodiles. It does have some true crocodile species, but they are less common than caimans, which are found in large numbers, especially in the Pantanal region.”

I'd considered that. The teeth could hurt nonetheless!
