They survive off eating the same kind or other animals. it can survive if they swim in a flock and one crocodile gets hurt, then the instinct to the other crocodiles in the flock, is to kill and eat the weakened one

Crocodiles are now a bit different, but they have not changed much. They have backbones and lungs. They must come to the surface to breathe. A crocodile can stay underwater for three to five minutes. Crocodiles have four-chambered hearts. They are cold-blooded and have no lips. Their mouths can't close tight. The color of their skin is dark gray or green. Crocodiles have a valve that closes their air pipe so that water can't enter the lungs while they are underwater. The crocodile is usually thirteen to eighteen feet long. They have bony plates on their backs. Their bodies are cigar-shaped and have tough hides. A crocodile can live fifty years. Crocodiles weigh, on average, 1350 pounds. They have powerful legs and huge tails. Their feet are partially webbed and have long nails. Crocodiles use their tails to capture food. They have thirty to forty teeth, which interlock when its mouth is closed. A crocodile has a good sense of hearing and smelling.
