Saltwater Crocodile

The saltwater crocodile is often referred to as the most dangerous animal in Australia, as it thrives both on land and in the water. When a person is near their habitat, there is no safe space to hide from these dangerous and aggressive reptiles.

Saltwater crocodiles are huge and powerful creatures. They can grow up to 17 feet long and weigh around 1,000 pounds.However, huge crocs that grow up to 23 feet long and weigh 2,200 pounds can be found.

These reptiles are excellent swimmers and can be found not only on land but far out at sea. They hunt in both environments, and they will eat anything that they can find.They can kill animals as large as a water buffalo on land and they can even kill large sharks in the water. They will use their powerful bodies to grab their prey, and then drag it under the water until it drowns.
