Look out behind you! Crocodiles stalk their prey and are experts at creeping up behind their victims. They can move with surprising speed and agility. In their own environment, they are easily faster than humans! They have 64 large teeth that they use to crush small prey and swallow it whole. But don’t feel too secure. Larger prey is shaken to pieces first! ✔

Ever heard of the death roll? No, not the

moldy bread roll still sitting in your schoolbag! It’s the violent way that crocodiles kill large prey. The croc bites its victim and hangs on tight. It drags it into the water and spins rapidly to drown the unfortunate prey.
