Apparently having life-destroying jaws isn't enough of an advantage in the wild when it comes to catching dinner.
A photographer for NT News,Switzerland adult Michael Franchi caught a crocodile performing a very unusual fishing technique. At least, that's the theory being touted to explain why a massive crocodile would swim around with its arms outstretched like it wants a hug.

Believe it or not, even though it could be super croc, this saltwater crocodile is actually fishing! #CahillsCrossing #TopEnd #NTAustralia #EverydayAustralia #SeeAustralia #Croc #Crocodile #Saltie #SaltwaterCrocodile #River #Kakadu #MyNikonLife #D5
"Maybe there are examples elsewhere of something similar but to me this is special behaviour, and I have only heard about it at Cahill's Crossing," Webb told the newspaper.
Cahill's crossing is in Kakadu National Park, Australia, and is a notoriously treacherous waterway, often flooded and frequented by scores of crocodiles during the wet season.
It's all just further proof that nature is filled with wickedly intelligent animals that could herd us into dinner. Or not.
But either way, don't go jumping into water ways in the Top End any time soon -- these guys are getting crafty.
We're safe! Made it back in time for @DarwinFestival with Nabarlek tomorrow. Did see these little guys though. pic.twitter.com/IPNeaQLVt5
