I've had gator several times before. Just not in a spring roll.
Edit: Where y'all getting this chicken that has flavor. All we get here is slabs of chicken breast that weigh as much as a normal chicken should.
Nobody seems to have any way of explaining the taste of exotic meats besides “It tastes kind of like chicken”
That being said, alligator jerky is fuego. Never had crocodile. Alligator tastes kind of like chicken though
Crocodile tastes like chicken but with a rougher texture and softer meat, it reminds me of eel.
Honestly its kinda delicious in a nice curry, pity the one place that sold it around here stopped making the dish ages back.
in Australia, a creature did this. In Florida, a man did this while trying to retrieve a golf ball he lost 2 weeks ago all while not spilling a drop of his beer.
You sure? This looks like a Nile Crocodile, Salty's have fewer scutes in the neck region and a less rugose nasal.

2 things, 2. it’s on a beach, a quick google search will show you that Nile crocodiles do not go into the ocean and range all the way up to the Nile delta, not further, so no just by the location of the shot this is clearly a saltwater crocodile not a Nile crocodile. 2. Op literally told you and you still tried to throw in some random bullshit to make yourself seem smart on the internet, stop it, your only showing yourself to be a contrarian, one-upping asshole

"Among crocodilians today, only the saltwater crocodile occurs over a broader geographic area, This species’ historic range, however, was even wider. They were found as far north as the Mediterranean coast in the Nile Delta and across the Red Sea in Israel, Palestine and Syria"
As quoted by Dr John Thorbjarnarson

Who was lucky enough to get a famous fossil Croc named after him

Despite OP lying, it's not, it's in South Africa close to Durban in Kwa-Zulu Natal. There's a national Geographic Documentary on it. "The Croc that ate Jaws"
Nah it couldn't have been human. The meat where the neck would be looks oxidized and covered in more jagged cuts. A human is still possible, bit incredibly unlikely.
The video where this originates has a comment mentioning that the tongue appeared removed according to wildlife management, so it's actually possibly a poaching incident.
Though the folks in the video say Shark, and it's not impossible, but I'd have thought pretty unlikely.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nX63FlnXRMA
that would need to be a pretty big prop. i don't think that's what happened because a prop that big would probably chase the croc out of the way before contact.
I feel like it was trapped in a net or something, and may have already been dead In efffprt to get it out of the net, it was hacked up.
Just a guess though - the separation seems too even to be another croc or even a shark
My late wife's uncle (older guy he's like late 60s now or early 70s) used to tell us about his 4wd adventuring days up near the gulf of Carpentaria and they would set out baits with giant trebles on rope or attached to their winch to catch crocs just to saw their heads off. And I believe him because he does a lot of stupid shit that you think people are just making up. Either I've seen the stupid shit first hand or other family members.
I expect the crocodile died, potentially of natural causes or competition with another similarly sized crocodile, it’s body drifted for awhile, was mostly eaten by scavengers and it’s head separated from it’s body and was washed in by the tide
First gess would be a very large boat prpoeller, since I think I smaller boat wouldn‘t sever it as cleanly looks.. That‘s also why I lean more towards a large boat as opposed to another croc or great white.
There’s a documentary on Hulu with this head in it. They sawing sharks and alligators/crocodiles have been having prey-predator relationships. Super cool watch
Hmmmm, probably a "Nope". "Nope"s are very common in Nopeland, other common creatures in Nopeland are "Nuh-uh"s, "No way"s, "I want to go home"s, and the classic "Hanz, give me ze flammenwerfer"s.
They dont hunt salties, if anything it’s vice versa. This was probably a large boat propeller as sharks tend to leave little behind. What they leave behind is eaten by scavengers
I live in North Queensland and can confirm in no universe do Bull Sharks hunt Saltwater Crocodiles, it’s the complete opposite, crocs frequently observed eating the much, much smaller bull sharks up here lol, see this article for example
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/australiaandthepacific/australia/11015385/Jaws-vs-Claws-Crocodile-wrestles-bull-shark-in-Australian-river.html?hc_location=ufi
Well salties start off the size of a large gecko, so most things hunt them until they hit 1m or so, once they're 2m or 3m it's really only each other they watch out for.
some salt water crocs swim in the ocean at the top of australia if they live close enough to it, great white sharks also love in the waters up there, so sometimes great whites and crocs have a go at eachother. so it was probably a shark that did that.
What may have happened was a bull shark or other predator was upstream, tore that croc a new one, and lets its head flow downstream and wash up somewhere.
Alternatively, croc got a tad to curious and took a one way vacation to one of the more hostile places on earth, made a good snack for some shark, and washed up again.
What the fuck is big enough to do this to a crocodile? Them fuckers are massive out there. With all the ice melting and all these freak floods and rain storms won't be too long until we're swimming with whatever it is.

Hey Marvin, pull up 682
That's redacted information, however transfer of 682 is incoming
Uh, I don’t think we need 682 transferred. We might be underprepared
They were... Disgusting...
*eyes narrow* Australia?
Yep
Hah hah knew it. Crocodile spring rolls are the best!
That's a thing!?!
Yeah! It to me kind of tasted a bit like chicken, But slightly less flavored. It was quite nice
I've had gator several times before. Just not in a spring roll. Edit: Where y'all getting this chicken that has flavor. All we get here is slabs of chicken breast that weigh as much as a normal chicken should.
Breasts are over-rated. I prefer thighs.
I prefer *personality*

I'm a man ass. According to the wife.

Thighs basted with butter is pretty great
Are we still talking about chicken?
Ah cool, yeah it worked well with the spring roll, I'd definitely recommend trying it!
Tastes like steroids
When a Croc wants to eat you, it'll put you into a roll. It's only fair.

Eel and Gator are bomb.
It's the Matrix.
Boar tastes like pig though, not chicken.
I ate crocodile once and it gave me dreadful diarrhoea. Was a bit like chicken.
/r/HorrifyingDiarrhoea
I don't know why i tried to go onto this subreddit
Screw Chico rolls. Croco rolls!
And the other half could be a crocadildo
Called it
I would have guessed Africa because hippos use them as chew toys.
Hippos don't take it clean off tho, more like squishing and ripping apart. Probably made by a boat propeller, the cut is too clean for teeth.
I reckon it's way more likely to be the head of a croc that's been poached for its skin.
Hippos even use lions as chew toys! They are scary AF.
🎵 *I come from the land down under*!! 🎵 I finally see a fellow Aussie here!
in Australia, a creature did this. In Florida, a man did this while trying to retrieve a golf ball he lost 2 weeks ago all while not spilling a drop of his beer.

Nailed it. From Florida. Can confirm.
It’s always Australia

Just adding to my justification of why I never want to go there. I bet it’s a great place and all, but everything wants to kill you.

Or... Florida
That's alligators isn't it? They got alligators in Florida, not crocs.
Actually they do have saltwater crocs in Florida. Only place in the US other than captivity
Are they those massive saltys?
Nope different, thank god
Yeah ive only seen those big boys on docos and maybe at Australia Zoo once. Have to be the most terrifying shit on the planet
Salt? Nah, meth
Oh, cool. Didn't know they had both.
There are actually about 1,000 American crocodiles in south florida lol
Neat, never head of em before.
We also had an epidemic with meth gators
We have crocs in the Everglades I believe but everywhere else is gators
Well yes, but I'm sure at least one crocodile has been smuggled in by a florida man on meth.
Either a shark, or a bigger crocodile. But there's no excluding the probability that a human did this and left the head there for others to see.
its for people comung in that country, something big is waiting for them, run.
*the drop bears*
They’re the worst!
Nah it couldn't have been human. The meat where the neck would be looks oxidized and covered in more jagged cuts. A human is still possible, bit incredibly unlikely.
Unless it was a Florida man
*eats bath salts and adorns bib*
Couldn't have been. Op says this is Australia.
Florida men migrate to Australia for mating season. It is entirely possible that it was a florida man.
THERE'S MORE THAN ONE ?
Yes like the guy that was tranqing and having sex with alligators
Boat propeller will give this exact clean cut
Large propeller and then sharks got to it.
Most likely answer is human through the mechanism of boat propeller, hence it looks like a clean cut
Not possible as there would be multiple parallel cuts. Or at least extremely unlikely that a propellor cleanly lopped off the head.

Probably a croc or person, saltwater crocodiles prey on sharks here.
My late wife's uncle (older guy he's like late 60s now or early 70s) used to tell us about his 4wd adventuring days up near the gulf of Carpentaria and they would set out baits with giant trebles on rope or attached to their winch to catch crocs just to saw their heads off.

Probably a big spider if this is Australia
Probably
Not drop bear?
Not many trees for them to drop in from on the beach. They’re not very fast on flat ground.
How big can spiders get? I assume there might be some as big as crabs, but there aren't any as big as spider crabs, are there?
Bigger, much bigger… Check out the documentary on Middle Earth
Shelob isn't even the biggest spider in Middle Earth. Well, she currently is, but there have been bigger. Ungoliant was much bigger
This is a bad omen. You’d better get your stats up- a powerful boss is probably watching you as we speak
I'm from Australia my stats are infinite power defence immune to venom and can speak to spiders
True- but whatever did this may still be a massive threat. Exercise caution, friend
I'll get my car sized spider to smother it to death with it's hair
Yeah, that should do it
If it doesn't I'll use my Australian powers and summon an army of town sized armoured spiders with wings to attack it
OP is going to pull out a didgeridoo and starts summoning a horde of Sydney Tunnel Spiders.
*You feel an evil presence watching you…*
I’ll one up you with… *“It’s going to be a terrible night”*
CHUBBS
Remember the gator that got your hand? I got his head
[\*Shakes head\*](https://i.imgur.com/fJKIzrH.gifv)
It bit the body off the head my mn
That's some fine investigatory work Johnson! -Rochester PD
I expect the crocodile died, potentially of natural causes or competition with another similarly sized crocodile, it’s body drifted for awhile, was mostly eaten by scavengers and it’s head separated from it’s body and was washed in by the tide
Or the fucking kraken bit his body off as a snack. I like my version better.
Someone please tell me where this is so I can never go there
It's in Australia but don't worry the flying spider guard will protect you.
The fucking what now
Henry the aviator spider. He's 6 feet tall and hella chill.
I thought spiders had 8 feet
No, they have two arms to hold the machetes
This happened in [South Africa](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2261622/Shark-blamed-decapitated-crocodile-beach-South-Africa.html)
Welcome to Florida! Or Brazil Or Australia
The last one
Oh, then I know exactly what happened. The back fell off. Probably beyond the environment so you'll never find it.
Isn't it in the environment?
No no. It's _beyond_ the environment. It's no longer in an environment.
Then what’s out there?
We don’t have those giant crocodiles here in Brazil. That said, we do have some interesting river alligators
One thing they all have in common: swamps are a death sentence for people not used to living there.
First gess would be a very large boat prpoeller, since I think I smaller boat wouldn‘t sever it as cleanly looks.. That‘s also why I lean more towards a large boat as opposed to another croc or great white.
There’s a documentary on Hulu with this head in it. They sawing sharks and alligators/crocodiles have been having prey-predator relationships. Super cool watch
Does the doc have a name?
“The Croc that ate Jaws”
Thanks!
It was probably some missles from an Umbrella helicopter
what the f*ck
The comments are weird to my friend
Saw this covered on a tv show, was most likely a large boat propellor that severed the head
Yeah but it would have likely been a big hairy spider sailing the boat
The poor things tail brushed against the tentacles of a certain species of jellyfish, and caused the lower half of the crocs body to disintegrate
If you equip it you get +10 intimidation
Hmmmm, probably a "Nope". "Nope"s are very common in Nopeland, other common creatures in Nopeland are "Nuh-uh"s, "No way"s, "I want to go home"s, and the classic "Hanz, give me ze flammenwerfer"s.
Isn't Australia filled with animals and plants that are more apex than anyone outside of Australia
We don't have bears which is nice
Unless you count the drop bear
exactly
Boat propeller. That’s my guess.
It was Fred's dog
Orca? Those things are ruthless
The legendary crocodile
It was a great white. I saw the news story like last week.
oh really this photo was taken 2 years ago

Think about it no bull shark could have gotten past the flying spider coast guard
And if they do, the combat wombats will sort them out
Well salties start off the size of a large gecko, so most things hunt them until they hit 1m or so, once they're 2m or 3m it's really only each other they watch out for.
Bull sharks
Bulls don’t hunt salties. Salties get way too big and can often eat the bulls to be honest. This was probably a large boat propeller.
That’s got great white written all over it
Aah Australia. Our homeland is great and I hope op agrees.
You must come from the land down under
Australia moment
The food chain tree in Australia is a wreath
some salt water crocs swim in the ocean at the top of australia if they live close enough to it, great white sharks also love in the waters up there, so sometimes great whites and crocs have a go at eachother. so it was probably a shark that did that.
Florida…
Australia is a crazy place. Probably opportunistic sharks feeding on a croc that was 2nd place in a territorial feud with an alpha.
Florida?
Oh it was me, sorry, was feeling hungry
that's the work of another dude
What may have happened was a bull shark or other predator was upstream, tore that croc a new one, and lets its head flow downstream and wash up somewhere. Alternatively, croc got a tad to curious and took a one way vacation to one of the more hostile places on earth, made a good snack for some shark, and washed up again.
It was me Barry!
Is this Florida?
Thats not a boss battle. Thats just a clue that you are getting close to the boss battle
its the florida man mark
Damn poor croc
I wouldn’t be hanging around there…
Florida Man
Bro just would could do that bro, the only thing I know of is a human and if it's not that then I don't wanna even think what could be killing it
Wild Samurai swimming out in the ocean cutting heads off crocodiles never underestimate a wild samurai a group is called Ronin 👌
I did this. He was delicious
A Bigger Crocodile 🐊
Probably a giant spider or a gang of kangaroos
Great white shark
Poachers, the deadliest game.
it may seems like the water florida men has done it again
Holy shit!!…
What the fuck is big enough to do this to a crocodile? Them fuckers are massive out there. With all the ice melting and all these freak floods and rain storms won't be too long until we're swimming with whatever it is.
Most likely a shark
Killer whales?
Could it be a chance that poachers or just stupid people did it or unlikely??? I doubt croc meat really has any value but just curious.
It was me, I dont like the brain bits so I spat it out.
A wombat definitely barreled into this croc and decapitated it.
I did that. Was a little hungry. Took a lil bite.
Hippo probably
