ah good point, but they do not protect the babies as a herd, in fact others niles will make a snack out of anothers babies . but the way crocs watch over babies is a key to why they have been around so long.

-Finally a thread on fauna that actually interests me! All the others bore me, no real topic and nothing up for discussion. I do beleive that the protection of there offspring was key to there survivale. Though they did change in evelution, it was VERY little. That infact is one of the main reasons I like many crocodilain species. That and the fact that they were built almost perfect. Can survive a year with only one meal, jumping to 6-10ft, and running (I think 30mph???), Razor sharp jaws, and tremendous snapping pressure.
