While the baby crocodile is almost never seen in the dungeon, the full-grown crocodile makes occasional appearances. While slow, the crocodile can do significant damage, and is much more difficult a foe than its younger form.

A crocodile corpse is a good meal, but an adventurer with a wand of polymorph may want to reconsider before eating - polymorphing a crocodile corpse will yield a pair of non-cursed fireproof +0 low boots.
