Big cats – like lions, leopards and tigers – are among the few animals with enough brawn and moxie to take on a full-grown
A fully grown crocodile would win a fight against a jaguar every time. The reason is simple: jaguars couldn't muster enough power to land a fatal attack on a grown crocodile without putting themselves at tremendous risk. Jaguars prefer to hunt their prey and land a quick, fatal attack on the throat.
Big cats like leopards and panthers sometimes kill and eat these big reptiles. Large snakes can also do a lot of damage to alligators and crocodiles. There are countless videos showing snakes wrapped around gators and crocodiles.
Jaguar (Panthera onca) are the largest cat in the Americas and have a powerful bite to match. For their size, they are the strongest of any cat, allowing them to dispatch monstrous prey - even caiman crocodiles.
Overall Strongest: Tiger
It's the strongest wild cat in terms of strength and size. The largest cat is also a member of the Panthera genus and beats the lion in terms of strength, speed, aggression, fighting skills, and coordination. Its large size is a factor that makes it the strongest cat in the world.
Big cats – like lions, leopards and tigers – are among the few animals with enough brawn and moxie to take on a full-grown crocodilian. While these predators certainly target the occasional toothy prey, jaguars are likely the most frequent croc killers.
A crocodile would win a fight against a gorilla. Most of the fights would begin in or near water, and a gorilla doesn't stand a chance in that scenario. If a crocodile bit and dragged the gorilla into the water, then it's a simple victory. The two creatures might meet each other on land, though.
The crocodile is simply too large and powerful for the lion to defeat. If the crocodile was able to ambush a lion that was drinking out water from a river, then the fight would be over immediately. The crocodile would drag the lion under and easily kill it.
A hippo would win a fight against a crocodile. Although crocodiles are large, powerful creatures, they cannot kill a fully-grown hippo. Hippos are large, round animals that are much taller than crocodiles. The only place they would be vulnerable to attack is their legs.
They're not afraid to go after deadly prey and they have no natural predators in the wild to worry about.
"Lions are wary of crocodiles and will generally avoid the water to stay away from crocs," writes NatGeo TV.
In conclusion, I think that the only animal a crocodile genuinely fears is the hippo. Smaller crocodiles may fear larger ones due to risk of cannibalism but that's pretty explainable. Animals that a crocodile may avoid due to unnecessary risk include elephants, lions, and rhinos.
Lions are known to prey on young crocodiles which are yet to reach their full strength. However, these large felines are generally wary of the adult version of these toothy reptiles.
Although crocodiles are considered as wild creatures, the Paga crocodiles are friendly and coexist with humans. The friendly relationship between the crocodiles and humans continue to baffle the minds of many. This is in contrast to the perception of crocodiles as dangerous.
Although adult crocodiles have no natural predators other than humans, hatchlings have a high mortality rate and are preyed upon by other wildlife including raccoons, birds, and crabs.
#6: Crocodiles
What is most likely to kill an elephant is the crocodile biting the elephant's trunk off. The elephant may then die as a result of not being able to eat and drink properly, or even breathe. On the other hand, a crocodile is most likely to kill a baby elephant and is most successful on its watery turf.
Traditionally the lion has been crowned King of the Jungle, but when one observes a lion and elephant encounter in the African wild it is clear to see that King lion has a healthy respect for elephant.
Granted, a smart jaguar could potentially ambush a lion, but unless they landed a fatal bite right away, they're not going to be successful. Jaguars might be able to open their mouths wide enough to bite into a lion's head or neck for an immediate kill, the kind they're used to having.
