The crocodiles are being fed by tourists; however, one crocodile attacked its own kind when its food was snatched away. It bit down hard on the tail of its opponent and executed the famous death roll.
Crocodile attacking crocodile.
Despite having sharp teeth, crocodiles do not have molars, which means they can only consume large chunks of meat instead of chewing it into smaller pieces. Additionally, their legs are quite short, so they cannot hold onto their prey tightly to tear the flesh.
Because of this, crocodiles must twist their bodies to tear the meat. In this instance, the aggressive crocodile attacked its opponent as if it were prey. The attacked crocodile twisted in the direction of the attack to minimize damage to its body, and then both continued to fight for a considerable amount of time.
