They surrounded the crocodile, and tried to attack to chase it away. On the other hand, the crocodile also did not want to give up and tried to stay.

After a period of intense “exploration”, the unexpected ending happened when the crocodile and lion decided to eat their prey together in peace.

“The crocodile used its teeth to threaten the lions, trying to steal the meal,” Rosa Swart recounted. “But the lions soon realized that the fearsome crocodile was no match for them on land.”

“This probably made the lions feel more secure, and they enjoyed their meal together after a chaotic start.”

However, the lions were probably overconfident. According to statistics from National Geographic, the Nile crocodile (usually living in South Africa) is one of the animals with the strongest bite force on Earth, about 3 times greater than that of lions, and 25 times greater than that of humans. .

It’s easy to see that with this terrifying bite force, crocodiles can easily crush the victim’s bones and flesh, leaving them seriously injured and unable to run away.

Normally, after using its powerful bite, the crocodile will drag the victim into the river to drown until suffocation. Then, to tear the bait, the crocodile grabbed the meat tightly and turned around many times.

Using this tactic, they can take down large prey such as cows, buffaloes, sharks and even humans in an instant. As for medium-sized prey such as monkeys, antelopes, zebras… they have almost no chance of surviving when confronting them.

Besides being able to easily injure lions, crocodiles also have skin with a thick horny layer, especially on the back and neck, allowing it to withstand physical impacts from predators. enemy.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for lions to threaten and harm crocodiles, even though they possess a numerical superiority.
