Comment

Female crocodiles typically lay between 30 & 60 eggs. For up to three months, the mother waits nearby the nest protecting the eggs from predators. Once the eggs are ready to hatch, the mother digs down to the nest and carries the hatchlings to water in her mouth. Despite having the strongest bite of any animal in the world, female crocodiles show a remarkable gentle nature towards their young, and can carry up to 15 hatchlings in their mouth at once.

Interesting fact
