These big cats are enormously strong and have a savage temperament far greater than these big reptiles. I have seen shows on Animal TV where tigers swim across rivers and the crocs stay far away as possible. An average adult tiger is from 600-800 pounds and probably the most powerful ground predator on the earth.
What’s worse is that in terms of raw intelligence, tigers and the other big cats are the equal of man. They don’t think the same way we do which handicaps them, but they’re every bit as smart as your average human. Smarter than some, if you include Democrats.
The Romans documented at least one case where a female tiger who had been robbed of her cubs tracked down the man responsible - halfway across the European continent.
Do not screw around with big cats.

Maybe the crocs were`nt hungry. If the water is deep enough so that a big cat would have to swim to cross it, they would`nt have a snowballs chance in hell against a croc.
One HuffPoer blamed global warming for the leopards attack against the croc.
