Crocodiles are in 13 different species, and this makes the world to have many different sizes of crocodiles. The dwarf crocodile is the smallest. The growth of the dwarf is about 1.7 meters length and weighs around 6 to 7 kilograms. Since we have the dwarf as the smallest, it means there should be the largest as well. The largest of them all is the saltwater crocodile. The longest in meters ever found so far is about 6.17 m long and have a weight that can go up to 907kg.
Crocodiles only feed on meat because they are carnivores. Those found In the wild, feast on fish, birds, frogs etc.
These crocodiles dont have the capabilities to crush the meat into smaller pieces and so they swallow small stones that help them to crush.
