Crocodiles have a specialized adaptation that allows them to eat underwater without drowning: they can close their ears and nostrils tightly when submerged. Their throat muscles also enable them to swallow prey while keeping their mouth closed, preventing water from entering their respiratory system. Additionally, they have a unique mechanism in their throat that helps them push food down while minimizing the risk of water entering their lungs. These adaptations make them effective hunters in aquatic environments.
