🐊The crocodile - They are fearsome hunters, able to plane along the water surface at high speed with the help of their thrashing tail. The muscular tail propels their body out of the water to lunge at prey in a surprise attack, which is usually deadly.

And as you can see in these videos, they also spend a lot of time warming up in the sun or keeping cool in shade or the water. Before booking a cruise, ask your guide the best time of day to see crocs, as it can vary from week to week and the season.

And always, be croc wise!
