Nile crocodiles are among Africa’s most fascinating animals: ancient, perfectly adapted, and often invisible at waterholes—until they strike with lightning speed.

In this episode, I explain how Nile crocodiles hunt (including the infamous death roll), why their teeth “keep growing back” throughout their lives, how they see underwater, and why they must swallow their prey above the surface.

We also talk about reproduction, nest temperatures, and their remarkable parental care—and explore the role Nile crocodiles play in the ecological balance of river ecosystems.
