Who would win a fight a crocodile or a bull moose?

A crocodile and a bull moose would never meet in the wild, but even if they did fight, either may win. A saltwater crocodile would beat a bull moose in water because of its 2000 pounded weight, sharp tough skin, and enormous size with the jaws. If they fought on land, the bull moose could trample the saltwater crocodile to death, but the saltwater crocodile might be too heavy and too big for the bull moose to kill. Even though the bull moose on the rut can kill a grizzly bear or a brown bear, the saltwater crocodile could drag an alive polar bear to the water and drown it! Saltwater crocodiles are like the strongest creatures on land and water!

Can a saltwater crocodile kill a tiger?

Yes, a saltwater crocodile could kill a tiger. Large Adult Male Saltwater Crocodiles are a lot stronger than tigers, and have huge jaws that could bite tigers to death before the tiger had a chance to attack. In the Sundarbans in India, The Saltwater Crocodile share its Mangrove Habitat with the Bengal TIger. Both the reptile and the cat know the damage each can do to the other and give each other a wide berth. We have seen Tigers swimming across Crocodile infested creeks in the Sundarbans without any fear or trepidation. They swim to go from one island to another. A basking Crocodile can easily be seized and killed by a tiger. A very large Adult Crocodile can take on and probably kill a year old tiger in deep water. But from our observations as Naturalists who have spent time in the Sundarbans, very rarely do we see conflict arise between these two apex predators who seem to give each other a wide berth


Does a crocodile or a lion kill more people?

How many saltwater crocodiles can kill a rhinoceros?

Possibly three. Saltwater crocodiles would have difficulties with rhinos since a rhino has tough skin and heavy weight advantage. A saltwater crocodile sometimes would kill and eat young rhinos, but would not kill an adult rhino. A rhino on the rut is far more dangerous than an attacking saltwater crocodile, and could even kill a bull elephant.

Lion vs Nile crocodile who is the winner?

Well salwater crocodiles grow up to be around 22 feet+ while the nile grows up to be around 20 feet maybe smaller. Saltwaters and Nile crocodiles are equaly agressive they can both kill very large animals. However the size and strength of a Saltwater will make it a victor over the Nile crocodile. And the fact that Saltwater crocodile kills more people in middle eastern then Nile crocodile kills more people near the Nile river(worlds longest river).
