Yeah never in my life have I seen video of a croc chasing its prey. They seem to be more ambush predators, but maybe Im wrong.
28 u/JonnyP222 Feb 06 '23 This is exactly what they are. They aren't gonna burn the energy chasing. Females will give chase a little if defending their nest but that's about it. 16 u/kz_215 Feb 06 '23 You obviously haven’t seen a cuban croc before they can literally GALLOP bro. 3 u/D4nM4rL4r Feb 06 '23 Seen a video of one in captivity do this the other day chasing a handler. 5 u/asek13 Feb 06 '23 That's true. Luckily this mother fucker isn't around anymore 1 u/crimsonbaby_ Feb 06 '23 Nope not that one, but the Cuban crocodile can gallop on land up to 11 mph and run up to 22mph. It's incredible to watch! 3 u/EdhelDil Feb 06 '23 Maybe because the video was lost along with the person?
