Crocodiles (as well as alligators) find food primarily by making use of their well-designed anatomy. With the bulk of their long bodies hidden below the water's surface and only their nostrils and eyes above it, crocodiles patrol the rivers and lakes within their territory until they come across prey. Unseen, they may approach within striking distance and then attack.
