it is when; the crocodile has grabed its prey using is jaw. It then basically does a sidewards roll several times still grabbing hold of its victim. It tends to do this more so in water than on land, or it is used to drag the victim in to the water. The prey has no chance of survival.

Are crocodiles filter feeders?

No, they are carnivores. They lay wait in the water, blending in with the muck in the water. When a herd stops to drink the water, the crocodile strikes. It grabs the leg of it's prey and pulls it into the water to drown. If the prey is being difficult the crocodile preforms the "death roll". The "death roll" is when the crocodile rolls furiously to twist whatever is in it's jaws in hopes to rip it off. They sometimes use the "death roll" just to rip chunks of meat off of the body of the prey.


Who does the death roll an alligator or a crocodile?

Both Alligators and Crocodiles do the 'death roll'. All 23 species of Crocodilians can only open and close their mouths, and cannot move them from side-to-side like you or I, so have to do the 'death roll' in order to dismember their prey, as they can only eat their food whole.
