went to the Dublin zoo earlier and saw a crocodile so now i am politely requesting croc facts if you've got some

Crocodiles are closely related to birds. Crocodiles and modern birds are the only living archosaurs!

The largest crocodile species is the saltwater crocodile, Crocodylus porosus. Males can be longer than 7m and weigh more than 1,000kg. This also makes the saltwater crocodile the largest reptile on the planet!

The smallest crocodile species is the dwarf crocodile (Osteolaemus tetraspis) which can grow to a max length of 2m but usually averages out at about 1.5m and a maximum male weight of 80kg but an average of 30kg.

Saltwater crocodiles have the strongest bite force of any animal. That said their jaw muscles are really weak so you can hold their mouths shut with just your hands. If you sit on them and tip their heads up to hold their mouths shut between your chin and chest, this is called bulldogging.

Saltwater crocodile teeth can get up to 13cm long.

The oldest crocodile on record is Cassius, a saltwater crocodile at Marineland Crocodile Park in Queensland, Australia. At 5.5m he's the longest crocodile currently kept in captivity (this record was briefly broken in 2011 by Lolong, a 6.17m crocodile captured from the Phillippines and exhibited, but was reclaimed by Cassius when Lolong died in captivity in 2013) and also the oldest at an estimated 120+ years!

Sorry that's all you get I got really distracted cuz I had to cook and then I couldn't think of any more cuz I'm busy. I made a peach cobbler though! And steak and sparra's guts and a loaded potato :]
