The Nile Crocodile.

 I had recently gained an interest in the Nile Crocodile from playing this game called Wild Savanna on Roblox... I had learned all sorts of things such as certain names of different creatures and Animals in Africa from this game... but I didn't REALLY know about the animals and their ways. The more I played as  Nile Crocodile the more I gained a curiosity for this animal. And the more I wanted to really learn about it... So today I learned about this very interesting animal that before I hadn't had any interest in... 


Nile Crocodiles. 


They most of the time feed off of other animal's rotting carcasses. Gross but very very helpful. They have almost a sort of system where the biggest eat first and the smallest eats last. They often times when catching their prey or hunting hide almost completely under the water. They inch closer slowly at a time until their wide enormous jaws snap open and close on their prey as they drag them down into the watery depths where they drown them and then eat them. I've learned not only do they do this with animals but they also do this with humans a lot of times too. Most cases when they are bathing in the river. Crossing the river and more. 


The Females lay their eggs in the most hidden place possible. And once their babies hatch they let out a strong cry for their mother. Most of the time they cry when a predator of any kind is threatening them. 


There are certain predators that eat the Crocodile eggs and little babies BBC - Earth - Why do crocodiles attack humans?When they are weak. And because of this not many reach to adult hood. Also because of this the mothers are way more protective over their young and are quick to answer their child's call.
