The largest saltwater crocodile\never reliably measured clocked in at 21 feet, according to the Australian\nMuseum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c[Saltwater crocodiles] will eat just about any animal that\nthey can catch and overpower,\u201d the museum notes. \u201cSmall crocodiles feed\nfrequently on small prey, such as insects and crustaceans, whereas larger\nindividuals feed less often and on bigger prey, including water birds, sea\nturtles, and mammals up to the size of water buffalo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The specimen that attacked Guyula was likely a juvenile,\nconsidering its length. The museum says that these smaller animals tend to wait\nin shallow water for suitable prey to come within striking distance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saltwater crocodiles received protection in the 1970s, and\nsince then encounters with humans have been more common. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDespite numerous crocodile warning signs around popular\nwaterways, people choose to ignore the risks and many
