11 Incidents of Crocodiles Attacking Their Prey Quickly and Effectively Caught on Camera

Crocodiles and alligators are deadly predators at the top of the food chain. Not many animals want to mess with these ferocious reptiles because they usually win. Join us as we look at 11 Incidents of Crocodiles Attacking Their Prey Quickly and Effectively Caught on Camera.

Crocodile Vs. Hippo: It’s rare to see a crocodile attack an adult hippo, but many crocodiles will snatch and kill wandering hippo calves, and you can see the Nile crocodile in this video walking with a dead hippo calf in its mouth. 

The reptile may have found the young hippo already dead, or he may have killed it on his own. A gruesome scene was caught on camera, just opposite a camp in the Mara River, when a huge crocodile threw around the carcass of a newborn hippo. 

It is certainly not often that these ruthless and most efficient apex predators snatch baby hippos from their mothers. 

As opportunistic as crocodiles are, they often avoid hippos because they know how aggressive an angry hippo can be. On this occasion, onlookers did not see the killing but noticed the umbilical cord was still attached. 

It was unclear whether the baby was stillborn and abandoned by its mother, or whether there was a macabre opportunity to snatch a meal for the crocodile. 

A baby hippo could not follow its mother in a small stream in the river, and when a hungry crocodile saw that, it immediately grabbed the baby hippo and feasted on it.

Crocodile Vs. Dog: I’m not sure why this dog is standing in the water, doing nothing. When the crocodile approaches, a man warns the dog, but it’s too late.

 If the man knew there were crocodiles in the water, why did he let his dog jump in there in the first place? 

The people in this video were down south testing out some new models of knives they bought for deep-sea fishing when an 8-foot alligator jumped 4 feet out of the water to grab his dog by the nose right off the dock!

 Thankfully, the dog escaped with just a few scratches on his nose. He is now a little more cautious about what’s floating around the boat.

 It’s unbelievable that the dog in this video didn’t notice the huge crocodile in the water, and because of this, he was grabbed and pulled into the water by the massive reptile, before being killed. 

This dog is walking along a riverbank unaware that he will soon become this crocodile’s next meal, and when he does, the poor dog is defenseless and becomes crocodile chow in seconds.

After spotting a crocodile nearby, a small dog advances towards the large reptile to bark at it, so when the barking becomes unbearable for the crocodile, he decides to walk up to the dog, grab him, and take him back into the water, where he rips him apart

These dogs went to the wrong waterhole to have fun, and they ended up on this slippery slope with someone filming them. Seems almost as if they were put there to feed the hungry alligator in the water. 

I mean, how does someone have a camera handy to film such an incident if he’s not already prepared and knows it’s going to happen? This is a nefarious act, in my opinion.
