The market is turning green, which can only mean that there is no point in doomscrolling, but it makes sense to read a few interesting facts about crocodiles:



1. They are one of the few living descendants of dinosaurs, existing for over 80 million years.
2. To hear the offspring, the female lays between 20 and 60 eggs in a nest made of mud and vegetation.
3. The temperature in the nest determines the sex of the offspring: females are born in coolness, males in warmth.
4. The bite force of a crocodile is one of the highest in the animal kingdom, exceeding 2500 kilograms per square centimeter.
5. Despite this strength, the muscles that open the jaw are very weak, and it can be closed by hand.
6. They can stay underwater for a long time, slowing their heartbeat to one beat per minute.
7. To digest food, they swallow stones, which also help them with balance in the water.
8. Their lifespan is very long: in the wild, they live up to 70-100 years.
9. They cannot chew and are forced to tear their prey into pieces or swallow it whole.
10. These are social animals that communicate with each other using sounds, postures, and even bubbles.
11. Crocodiles cannot trade ETH on the Gate exchange.
