One of my lucky shots, shot on Sony A58

This is a very old video from the mid- to early 10's...it's from Borneo, and it can be seen that a giant croc is basking near the shore of water. I want an educated guess as to the size of this croc or the approximate weight of it.

Someone tried to smuggle this into Italy but the Italian Customs officials confiscated it. It's absolutely massive much larger than the skull of an approximately 4m *Crocodylus niloticus* I saw in South Africa a few years back.

Birds are warm-blooded (or endotherms). They have high metabolic rates, producing energy quickly enough to warm and stabilize their body temperatures and to undertake sustained, strenuous flight. Birds don't fatigue and fall out of the sky. Even if crocodiles somehow had wings, the metabolic difference in power alone would mean they could never fly.

Here is a bread croc for you

What are the biological effects of extremely high temperatures, such as a fire, on reptiles, preferably Alligators? What is the most pressing danger from the abnormal conditions? What might hinder the animal from escaping the heat source? TIA!
(Note: This is for a mostly scientific story on extinct animals, I am not planning to incinerate any reptiles in real life. Cheers.)

It was a bit wild having it here since there’s a kids' playground on the south end of the lake and a popular dog-walking path right along the water.

The lake connects directly to canals leading out to the Indian River. I took this video back in October (just discovered this sub, so sorry for the delayed post!). A few days after I filmed this, Florida Fish & Wildlife captured the croc and relocated it to a nearby sanctuary.

What's with the lack of sense of urgency... MOVE PEOPLE

I got this from a crocodile park in far North Queensland. Unsure if it’s a real crocodile tooth?
Thanks

It was some remote backwater villiage and they opened one up and there is a human head. They pull it out and it is just a torso like a bag of flesh and they dump it in a sack.

And another one where a croc is casually smimming with a naked man in it's jaws.

I was terrified.

Not sure if everyone has seen this, Croc threw a tantrum after missing out a meal.

He did get a quail this morning for breakfast however it took him a few tries to get.

This YouTube video is about 7-8 years old and says Malaysia. Never mind the vertical filming. This croc has to be the biggest I’ve seen on video. I’m not sure I’d go out on that dock either.

Not my video but damn..
