The incident recently occurred on a lawns in Lakeland, near Tampa, Florida, USA. Julie Smith was a witness and recorded the video. She was extremely surprised to see the reptile easily use its jaw to clip the opponent and take it away.
In the video, the giant crocodile is slowly crossing a road with an unfortunate prey still trying to get rid of the pair of sturdy but hopeless jaw lines.
Sharing the video on his personal Facebook, Smith said, "This happened this morning. The giant crocodile is about 6m long and its victim is about 1.8m long".
In the comments below, Smith said the smaller crocodile did not live long after the video ended.
Crab is a popular species in Florida. They are often found in freshwater areas including golf courses, as this area has abundant food.
crocodiles are chance hunters and can defeat larger prey such as deer, crab and bear, and even other crocodile species.
A crocodile expert said that the scene in the video is really popular and eating all kinds of meat is a completely normal behavior of crocodiles. Smaller crocodiles tend to stay away from larger crocodile areas because they are quite dangerous. Especially during the breeding season, male crocodiles are more aggressive than usual when facing other male crocodiles in their territory. This can lead to the result of eating the same meat if the size difference on both sides is too large.
