A video from a Florida golf course is being shared on Facebook in which a giant 20-foot alligator is carrying a small crocodile in its mouth. The post accompanying the video states that he took it to eat as it could prove to be its rival. This 20-foot crocodile named Grandpapi is carrying a crocodile of about 6 feet in its mouth in the middle ground. The viral clip was uploaded on Facebook by Lakeland resident Julie Marchillo Smith. This video was also shared by Everglades Holiday Park. It is being told that crocodiles do this in their love season i.e. during the mating season.
Experts say that during the mating season, cannibalistic male crocodiles become aggressive and kill smaller rivals. The breeding season begins around April and the mating season arrives in May and June. In this season, big crocodiles kill small crocodiles coming in their area. This is completely normal. It is being told that during the mating season, male crocodiles are more aggressive and do not allow any other male to enter their territories. At the same time, this video was seen from many perspectives on social media. At first people thought that this big crocodile was rotating the small crocodile. From the information given in the post, it was revealed to him that he was going to kill him.
Let these little crocodiles have no solution until they find a pond for themselves. At the same time, it is being told that male crocodiles grow up to 15 feet and the largest animal on record in Florida is 14 feet 3.5 inches. This type of crocodile lives in Florida due to the Everglades and the swamps present here. The chance of a predator attack on yes is about one in 3.2 million. American alligators live between 30 and 50 years.
