A crocodile could kill a buffalo if it attacked it in the water, but the crocodile would die if it was fighting the buffalo on land. If the crocodile is large, the buffalo would have a hard time stomping it to death.

Yes, it is possible. A buffalo's strong hooves and muscular body could injure or kill a crocodile on land, if the crocodile is not too big. Crocodiles will generally attack buffaloes if they come to drink water, but a buffalo would stomp the crocodile to death if the crocodile is on land. However, if the crocodile is in the water, the buffalo would not have a chance.

Yes, if the rhino stomps the large crocodile to death hard enough like an elephant would.

No, because this happens rarely. Most crocodile attacks on rhinos occur if they attack a baby rhino at a watering hole, or an adult rhino dies in an area where crocodiles may be living.

Possibly three. Saltwater crocodiles would have difficulties with rhinos since a rhino has tough skin and heavy weight advantage. A saltwater crocodile sometimes would kill and eat young rhinos, but would not kill an adult rhino. A rhino on the rut is far more dangerous than an attacking saltwater crocodile, and could even kill a bull elephant.

They don't. It is quite impossible for crocodiles to kill an adult white rhino because of the thick skin of the rhino and the rhino's strength, enough to toss a croc from the water if it tried to grab on.
