The Mugger Crocodile is also found in Iran in the westernmost point of its habitat, I think they're smaller here due to less food, strangely they rarely attack people and despite lucrative market for their skin, the locals protect them because they believe "Gandoo" (the local name for Mugger Crocs) keeps the water clean.
Max size isn't a good measurement. The max sizes of most Crocs are higher than the 2 large Gators though besides the Nile and Saltwater Crocodiles, no average Crocodile is longer than a Black Caiman
Nice video. One thing extra I feel is worth mentioning is that crocodilian behavior (eg. More aggressive vs less aggressive) is often based on the regional history and current country policies. For example, a part of the Nile where rebels used to dump their victims got those crocs in that area craving humans, which still is a problem to this day. Costa Rica where their environmental laws allow companies to agitate and feed the crocodiles for tourists - has since created a very aggressive species of the American crocodile. Contrast that to adjacent Panama where it isn't permitted, their American crocs are super chill (relative). External factors 🤷🏼♂️. I'd assume this is the case everywhere for all wildlife, how humans can have such an impactful affect on various animal behaviors in regards to their evolution in the respective geographic region.
Their natural aggression tends to correlate to their food availability. Nile and Saltwater crocs regularly face dry seasons when food is scarce so they have to be aggressive so they can feed when food finally becomes available. American crocs, despite growing to similarly large sizes, have access to food year-round and so end up being more docile. The only exception I've found to this rule is the Cuban crocodile which is surprisingly aggressive for a smaller-sized crocodile. Perhaps the fact that it's a more social crocodile means aggression is required to fight for food between the "pack." It's interesting that humans are affecting those tendencies by feeding them. Maybe they're recreating the Cuban croc scenario: by humans feeding the crocs they create situations where the more aggressive and dominant crocs end up being the ones at the front getting fed and thus incentivize that aggression.
If you could include the other crocodiles, like the endangered Siamese Crocodile and one of my favorites, the timid Australian Freshwater Crocodile. Great presentations as I love these beautiful beasts.
Can you do 9 of the largest bovids and antelopes in the world 9. Nilgai (blue bull) 8. Blue wildebeest 7. American bison 6. Cape buffalo 5. Gaur 4. Musk ox 3. European bison 2. Eland 1. Giant sable antelope
The mugger crocodile gets its name from the Hindi word magar (मगर)their true name is magarmachh (मगरमच्छ). Gharial name comes from the word ghara (घड़ा) which means a traditional clay pitcher. This name is given because the tip of its snout looks like a pitcher.
Thanks mate. I was actually wondering how it was nammed Mugger. I wasn't sure if it meant the obvious and was known for 'mugging' (robbing) other crocks and predators of their prey.
One of my favourite wildlife channels that obviously research and fact check before releasing each video. (EDIT) And has a real voice, not a robot. Has there been a video done regarding largest spiders of the world? Cheers.
@@derekk8523 he never said that, he said the American alligator is the second largest animal in the alligator family, Alligatoridae which includes caimans as well as the two extant alligator species
The Cuban crocodile must be relatively small. I wonder if it has the longest croc legs and if it spends the most time on land? Thanks for another thoughtful, well produced video!!!
Go to Gatorland in Orlando Florida and you’ll see most of these Crocodiles. The Cuban Crocodile walks in a bipedal motion and they are cooperative hunters. They’re very fierce looking too but they aren’t the biggest. Just so all you know Alligators/Crocodiles are solid creatures made up of pretty much all muscle with a much harder bone density then ours. We are mostly water so where I’m getting at is a 1 meter Alligator or Crocodile can do some major damage or even kill you regardless of how great of shape you’re in. These creatures I enjoy a ton but they’re super dangerous.
I’ve watched Nile crocodiles on tv and I saw them attacking wildebeests which is scary since wildebeests are my favorite animals The American crocodile is my 2nd favorite
@@GenericDan well, there is one skull on Paris measuring over 70 cm and it is thought that the skull belong to a 7 m long specimen. A croc of that size is estimated to reach at least 1.5 tonnes to 2 tonnes. So yeah, 2-tonne saltwater crocodile is still possible, but not regularly found
The longest crocodillian skull belonged to Tomistoma in Borneo this suggests the false Gharial could reach much larger sizes in the past,given that the species is pretty cryptic its too soon to hand out size estimates
Black Caiman do get over 20 feet. They are the Apex predators of the Amazon. Even the biggest Jaguars stay away from the bigger ones because those giants will eat them. Jaguars typically go for the other Caiman species in the Amazon too as opposed to the Black Caiman. The American Alligator can get bigger than that too. I’ve seen well over 16 feet.
There is a big difference between officially measured and recorded in general estimates and guesses. The biggest black caiman ever measured was actually over 14 feet long though there are people who estimate bigger ones out there.
Around the end of the 19th century, an American Alligator that measured at 20 ft. was shot in Louisiana. It isn't official because they couldn't move it, so it washed away in the tides. Those old monsters are practically non-existent now though, but I'm sure there is probably a monster or two in a remote swamp somewhere. There are plenty of 13 footers in Lake Okeechobee.
@@davis4555 The 19.2 ft American alligator is not verified whatsoever, and the person who reported it is known to exaggerate. However, according to the more reliable Mark Plotkin, the largest black caiman measured was 5.5m or 18 ft with a section of its tail missing. There is also many other reports from biologist that mention caimans from 4.8-6.4m with the 6-meter giants being from before the skin slaughter, and we still have skulls of alleged giants while the alligator has no remains at all to support such large sizes. The largest verified alligator was only 4.5m as well or just under 15 ft at 14 ft 9 inches killed by Mandy Stokes in 2014.
The Ramree Massacre it was called, over a thousand japanese soldiers were stuck in the mangroves, screams and gunfire were heard by the enemy during the night, when day came only 200-300 japanese soldiers were left alive
Deinosuchus, Sarcosuchus, and the short nosed giant crocodile that shared its habitat with Titanoboa, and there must be a few more "giant" crocodiles.... maybe the one from the movie "Lake Placid"
this might sound like an odd question but do the territories of the Nile and the Salty overlap anywhere? I'm trying to fathom the level of aggression such a cross breeding would present. And wait? Nile crocs in Florida???
@@bill2908 Thanks. I figured the Indian Ocean was too far for a 'Salty' to cross. I can only imagine if they do cross breed we'd end up with an animal that was even more dangerous and 'aggro'.
They’re actually about the same size, the crocodile is slightly heavier, black caimans also have similarly verified largest size being 4.95m from Peru and the largest verified American at 4.93m from tarcoles in costa rica.
Good evening, i really like to watch you Videos its very interesting , Keep going It would be very interesting to watch Video of the smallest corodilians

I've never heard of a crocodile riding a horse. I don't think it's possible. Although if you lick the right kind of toad, you might be able to see that. HAHA- (equestrian)
I know this is a domestic animal, but I think it would be cool to do the top 10 largest dog breeds in the world (plus there’s lots of information about it)
all 8 of the crocodilians are 6 max 6.1 meter. How strange. I seen most of my times that nile crocodiles are peaked at 7-8 meters. but here its absolutely max 6 meters. the largest being only 6.5 what a shame. The largest crocodiles in the world are max 6.5 first time i ever hear this.
its freaky to think over 2 thousand years ago that these crocidiles were at least 40 feet big in height and about 40 feet in length on the ground and would eat those huge birds back then out the sky that were about 25 feet long with wings out and body about 15 feet long. its crazy to think as you would be walking home one day and 1 of those huge birds just flew down and picked you up and away you went screaming. its funny to think at that height they flew you wouldnt just want it to drop and kill you. in the films all those birds looked huge. most animals back then were huge, i dont get how they ended up gone forever? but crocodilises are the only animals that remind me of those species 2 thousand years ago. and crocs were here alot longer than that? a million years ago they say crocs have been here. As they have that prehistoric look about them! and they did well to still be here after the rest died off or were killed off. a mean imagine dragons walking about! and these animals were huge in size and weight. there was even birds at 30 feet tall, one peck from them and your dead. it would be like a sword going into you.
dude, 8,5m crocs are caught and documented. As for non-documented ones, the Africans narrate about 11m crocs killed and measured, but not properly recorded by photo or video means.

Crocodiles and alligators were my no 1 fear as a kid. I feel uneasy every time I go to the rivers. Now the fear is almost gone. I'm still avoiding large Crocs/alligators, of course, I still see them as dangerous creatures. But, if I have no choice especially if I have to protect someone, I'm ready to face them. With weapon of course. Lol... 😁
“The mugger crocodile is a very powerful swimmer but it also likes to venture on land and in som encases it will even hunt on land.” Then why do they stay in the water in Far Cry 4!?

I know Australia for the most part has the biggest crocs but on a recent trip to Costa Rica, I saw the most massive croc in the wild.
Saltwater croc aren't exclusive to Australia. Their habitat reaches as far as India. The largest salties so far have been found in the Philippines.
They're fat from being fed by all the tourists. They're certainly not the biggest crocs in the wild.
if i ever had a croc pet it would be an american crocodile they are tend to be more chill than gators
It’s actually the other way around, alligators are the most docile of the large crocodilians, besides gharial.
..I wish for a family of Saltwater Crocs (adults - babies) to be just dropped & placed in the middle of the Ocean.
Nice video. One thing extra I feel is worth mentioning is that crocodilian behavior (eg. More aggressive vs less aggressive) is often based on the regional history and current country policies. For example, a part of the Nile where rebels used to dump their victims got those crocs in that area craving humans, which still is a problem to this day. Costa Rica where their environmental laws allow companies to agitate and feed the crocodiles for tourists - has since created a very aggressive species of the American crocodile. Contrast that to adjacent Panama where it isn't permitted, their American crocs are super chill (relative).
External factors 🤷🏼♂️. I'd assume this is the case everywhere for all wildlife, how humans can have such an impactful affect on various animal behaviors in regards to their evolution in the respective geographic region.
Great point
Solid point.
All are dangerous, but not all are overly aggressive as others
Their natural aggression tends to correlate to their food availability. Nile and Saltwater crocs regularly face dry seasons when food is scarce so they have to be aggressive so they can feed when food finally becomes available. American crocs, despite growing to similarly large sizes, have access to food year-round and so end up being more docile. The only exception I've found to this rule is the Cuban crocodile which is surprisingly aggressive for a smaller-sized crocodile. Perhaps the fact that it's a more social crocodile means aggression is required to fight for food between the "pack."
It's interesting that humans are affecting those tendencies by feeding them. Maybe they're recreating the Cuban croc scenario: by humans feeding the crocs they create situations where the more aggressive and dominant crocs end up being the ones at the front getting fed and thus incentivize that aggression.

Crocodiles and alligators were my no 1 fear as a kid. I feel uneasy every time I go to the rivers. Now the fear is almost gone. I'm still avoiding large Crocs/alligators, of course, I still see them as dangerous creatures. But, if I have no choice especially if I have to protect someone, I'm ready to face them. With weapon of course. Lol... 😁
“The mugger crocodile is a very powerful swimmer but it also likes to venture on land and in som encases it will even hunt on land.”
Then why do they stay in the water in Far Cry 4!?
can you say kilogram not kelogram
