It's hard to say, but I think not. Crocodiles are too low to the ground and too dangerous for even a pack of lions to pick on. Powerful jaws, amazingly fast movement even after sitting for hours at a time, powerful tail and very thick skin makes it impossible for any animal to try to kill.

It depends on where the fight happens. On land the Lion is the superior opponent and can kill the alligator whereas in water the Alligator would win hands down. Depending on where the fight happens, either the lion or the alligator could kill one another.

I don't believe it's ever been documented that 3 hyenas could kill a male lion. A fully grown male lion will send 20+ hyenas running.
