Can a shark eat a crocodile?

Answer 1

I didn't find anything about sharks killing/eating sharks. I think it's possible, but unlikely.

I did, however,find crocs killing/eating sharks.

Answer 2

i dont think so

Answer 3

I suspect there are very few times when a crocodile and a large shark come in contact.  The saltwater crocs of Australia rarely go in to deep waters.  Large sharks rarely go in to shallow waters.  However, it would be logical to assume a shark might try attacking a crocs if conditions were just right.

Crocodiles in the marine environment are very similar to humans in that environment.  The reason humans are not on shark menu is because humans did not evolved in their world.  Throughout shark evolution it has had almost zero contact with humans, therefore would not know if it was a worthy food item.  The same would be true of crocodiles.  No shared evolution.

Answer 5

Shark would win...

If the two meet, shark will definitely win because of it's size and it's physical strength.

Answer 6

sharks wouldn't see crocodiles as easy prey so they would just avoid them and find easier food. why would a shark won't to take on a huge big salty in the first place? it would have to be a pretty stupid shark same with the crocodile. if a shark happened to come across a young and less defensive crocodile and he was hungry enough he might go for it but generally no.

Answer 7
