how did these things outlive dinos?

they didn't, dinosaurs are still one of the most diverse groups of animals.

They went inside and shitposted all day when the meter hit

>>2241618
Aren't they the apex predators of the entire world? No other animal can beat them and they're considered the most dangerous creature. They're even more alpha than hippos, gorillas, tigers and sharks.

>>2241629
I doubt a croc could take on a tiger 1v1 on land. Tigers are pound for pound one of the strongest animals in the world.

>>2241641
>pound for pound
They aren't even in the top hundred thousand.

>>2241652
Tigers literally hunt crocs. It's also retarded to try and compare animals because the environment is always the determining factor. The croc doesn't stand a chance on land just like the tiger doesn't in water.

>>2241618
They lived in the water, all of their cousins on land hit the dust.

>>2241653
crocs hunt tigers as well.

>>2241719
Which was my last point. No sense debating since it's all about environment.

>>2241741
in a fight between an adult crocodile and a tiger the crocodile would most likely win regardless of the environment.

they wouldn't fight to the death, but an infected wound will be the end of a tiger, while crocodiles are pretty much immune to infections.

>becuz they r stronk and good fiters
Holy fuck how stupid is this board? Its because they're cold blooded and incredibly sturdy, resistant to diseases, heal from severe injuries, can go extremely long without food and can go into hiding while the world turns to shit.

Dinosaurs were probably mostly like birds, rather frail with high metabolism and not as adaptable.

>>2241853
>like birds
most dinosaurs are birds.
>not as adaptable.
birda are one of the most diverse groups on earth.

it's really interesting how the most notorious shitposter here is actually the most knowledgeable

do you think there is a correlation between shitposting and intelligence? it makes sense given that animals have to be smart to get enjoyment out of pissing each other off.

>>2241875
there's nothing that pisses people off more than the truth.

>>2241875
>do you think there is a correlation between shitposting and intelligence?

He's not really that intelligent, since he's just a gardener.

>>2241880
>Gardeners can't be intelligent.

>>2241879
that's why so many people hate trump.

>>2241887
Intelligent people don't work in jobs that beaners do for 3$/h

>>2241888
the hate for that guy is mostly a media hype.

the things he says the media calls an outrage are things most people do or believe.

Is it due to them being reptiles?

>>2242137
That's a caiman.

still not more alpha than the mighty male lion tho

Hippos kill them regularly, unprovoked. White sharks when full grown out weigh them and could easily eat them if they lived in the same areas. Unless it's a salt water crocodile a tiger could probably kill a crocodile(in a land battle).

>>2242137
The only reason the feline wins is because of height, a permian diapsid carnivore like the Prontosuchus would rape any land carnivore on earth in a fight.

>>2242130
no they both don't mess with each other.

>>2242133
dumb animeposter

>>2241629
A hippo could literally bite a croc in half.

Also, what kind of croc are we talking? Theres a significant difference between an american croc, and a salty.

>>2241629
Humans are THE apex predator, you fucking retard

>>2242147
It's because they can stop circulation to any part of their body fampai

And here we see the human being in its natural habitat, stalking its prey.

pound for pound, it would be probably some of the smallest animals that are the strongest.

It's the fact that he uses a trip, therefore you notice him more. There are tons of knowledgable people and shitposters on /an/, the only difference is they are anons so you can't point them out.
