Why the egg is not hatch inside the mother?
In mammals, which includes humans, due to internal fertilisation, when a male sperm fertilises a female's egg, the embryo does 'hatch' and develops inside the mother's womb. After a gestation period, the baby is born via the vagina. In birds and reptiles, etc, though internal fertilisation is used, the female produces eggs that she lays and develops outside her body. For a simple example: birds lay eggs in a nest, and incubate them until they hatch, turtles lay eggs in a hole and buries them in the sand, crocodiles lay eggs in a mound of rotting vegetation, and will guard the nest site. (crocodiles and alligators are excellent mothers.)

Do male crocodiles help rase offspring?
Male crocodiles mate with female crocodiles but that is a far as it goes. Not that he has a choice because the mother crocodile does not tolerate another living being near her eggs. After they hatch, the mother carries them safely to water and nourishes them until they are able to fend for themselves. Only a few of them will survive and reach maturity.Male crocodiles are one of the biggest threats to young crocodiles, because he will have no problem with devouring his own offspring. It is a known fact that crocodiles will kill other crocodiles (big and small) to defend their territory or when there is a foodshortage.
