Crocodiles are a relatively fierce reptile, they are carnivores, can be a variety of animals as their prey. The size of crocodiles is relatively large, and the length of larger crocodiles can reach about 9 meters, and their weight is very heavy. Even smaller crocodiles are about one or two meters long. Therefore, if crocodiles want to maintain their own life activities, they have to supplement enough energy. Crocodile's appetite is relatively large, each time can eat a lot of animals. They can catch more animals, including terrestrial animals and aquatic animals.
Especially before they hibernate, crocodiles eat a lot of animals at once, storing excess energy in their guts and tails, so that they can persist for a long time without eating, during which time they can hibernate in their caves. After the dormancy process is over, they will come out of the hole to hunt.
As mentioned above, crocodiles have a relatively large appetite and can eat many animals each time. Crocodiles can persist for a long time after eating once, at least for a few days, or even for weeks to months. This is because crocodiles can store excess nutrients and energy in themselves, thus not eating for a long time. Especially before the hibernation mentioned above, they will store a lot of energy, enough to maintain their hibernation time for several months.
However, if the crocodile is farmed, it is better not to go without feeding for a long time. When crocodiles are small, they can be fed once a day. When they are adults, they are usually fed once every two or three days.
