In the Indian folktale "The Monkey and the Crocodile," a clever monkey lives on a tree by a river and befriends a crocodile. One day, the crocodile invites the monkey to his home for a meal, but he secretly plans to eat the monkey’s heart to please his wife. The monkey, sensing danger, cleverly tricks the crocodile into thinking he left his heart in the tree, escaping to safety. The story highlights themes of wit, friendship, and the triumph of intelligence over brute strength.

Can a crocodile swallow a human?

No they don't. With small animals such as rats, and small birds, they chew. With larger animals such as wildebeest, deer, and maybe even humans if they're that hungry, they do the death roll. What that is the Alligator or Crocodile will bite it's victim, then it will roll until the limb of the animal is completely ripped off so the Alligator or Croc can chew it.

Are there saltwater crocodiles in the US?

Oh, dude, no way! Saltwater crocodiles are like the ultimate beach bums, chilling in the tropical waters of Australia, Southeast Asia, and the eastern coast of India. They're not into the whole American scene, so you won't find them sunbathing in the US. Like, they're too cool for that, you know?


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.


What is the biting force of a crocodile?

The alligator has an impressive bite force of 3000 pounds. This is equal to 1360.77 kg. It is said that, pound for pound, alligators have the strongest bite force than any other animal in the world. However, a crocodile produces a greater bite force. Brady Barr measured the bite force of a very big Nile crocodile at 5000 pounds (2267.96kg)! And that was still a defensive bite, despite the brute force that the crocodile produced, as it bit the bite meter only when it was brought in its mouth, while it was resting. If this crocodile had bitten the bite meter while charging at it, especially in water, the bite force would have been even greater.
