Some crocs eating a dead nyala at Crooks Corner:











They cannot really swallow, so have to throw the pieces to the back of the throat when they have time...seems to work?

Thank you - and thanks for the video also.

I must admit I learnt a lot myself.

During my March holiday I saw another dead hippo lodged between two rocks at Lower Sabie,
and not one crocodile in sight. I had to wind up my windows when passing because of the stench.

The meat was already vrot and that proved the statement to me that crocs only eat fresh meat..
