What is the loco motion of the crocodile?

Answer 1

There are 5 basic modes of locomotion for all Crocodilians:

1. Swimming - crocs use their tails to propel themselves through the water

2. The belly slide - this is where crocs slide down to the rivers on their bellies pushing themselves along with their legs.

3. The walk - self explanatory

4. The high walk - as above, but more elevated to express size

5. The gallop - this is where crocs run, but more in the style of a rabbit, bringing both back legs forward to propel themselves along. The record is currently held by the Freshwater (Johnson's) Crocodile from Australia which can reach speeds of 10.6 miles per hour.
