Crocodiles has two stomachs. One is named the muscle stomach and contains swallowd stones wich helps to mince its food. After it has been minced it goes over to the glundular stomach (körtel magen) where the food melts with help of stomach acidity. Crocodiles has more stomach acidity than other animals wich help the crocodile to melt the food faster and even melt down the animal bones.
Almost all the fat they get from the food they store in its tail and along its back.Crocodiles is very lazy animals and likes to live on the fat they got in their fat storage. That is the reason why crocodiles always move slow and dislike to move fast. They also grow very slow because they don´t eat very often.
