These stories are enough to put you off ever coming close to where they live. But for many people, the risk of being attacked by a crocodile is part of everyday life. Knowing more about the patterns involved in such attacks could save more of us and them.That they are dangerous is clear but like many things in nature, the story is more complicated.

Crocodiles do not necessarily set out to hunt humans. They are clearly ferocious hunters, but they are opportunistic predators. Any animal that moves is fair game. They will even venture onto land to find prey. If that warm blooded mammal happens to be a human, they will not discriminate.  

In Africa alone there are several hundred crocodile attacks on humans per year. Many take place in small communities and are not widely reported. Between a third to half are fatal, depending on the species.

They are far more common than shark attacks and yet do not receive as much media coverage.
