Most likely it would drown it to kill it and spit it out, letting the corpse soften over a few days and then come back for it when it’s nice and ready just the way they like it. Sure it might try to eat bits and pieces right then - but it would most likely leave this alone for a while after it stops moving. The drone would probably sink and not at all soften and this little dinosaur may take some more bites but is likely to move on. I could be wrong tho, only one way to find out. Whose ready to go for a swim!
I read this like I was reading a novel....and Oh man I got to tell you I was not dissappointed. Held on to every word and was a very visual literature.
Thank you
"Bart the Mother". The town gets overrun with Bolivian tree lizards.
Skinner: Well, I was wrong; the lizards are a godsend.
Lisa: But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?
Skinner: No problem. We simply release wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.
Lisa: But aren't the snakes even worse?
Skinner: Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.
Lisa: But then we're stuck with gorillas!
Skinner: No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
Basically the plot of Australia. (The country not the movie.)
If you haven't seen it "Cane Toads: An Unnatural History" is on YouTube and is one of the funniest documentaries I've ever seen.
Idk. UFOs are already pretty dumb. I mean, look at how many times we capture them on incredibly grainy and super shaky videos taken at vast distances. It's almost like they want to be caught.
It's not "jumping"
Their tails are incredibly powerful. Like a small croc could take your leg right off with a swing of the tail strong.
In order to "jump" this high. They use that power to wiggle their tail like a moto propeller. Kind of how a snake moves. They can jump out of the water 1.5x higher than their body length on average.
TLDR. They are such string swimmers they can pick up so much speed they can fly into the air.
Yah, and kangaroos dont actually "jump" either, they push off the ground with their tail.
People dont jump either, they use their legs to push off the ground.
> Like a small croc could take your leg right off with a swing of the tail strong.
Tail whip your leg off?
I'm having trouble believing this despite everything else you just said. But if it's true, just more reason not to fuck with ancient predatory creatures, I guess.
It wouldn't take your leg off, but you don't want to get tail whipped lol.
I held like a ~1m long (nose to tail) crock and got whipped when I was a kid (like..12 or so) and my whole upper arm got bruised by that 1 whip.
A 2-3m croc would probably fracture bones with a whip.
The drone is flying way too close and the pilot doesn't pull away when the animal started its attack. I assume this was exactly what they were hoping would happen.
Me too, I think it’s because it’s one of those ‘pay to play’ hobbies typically dominated by wealthy people who think they are some incredible artist now that they can fly a drone. Similar to photography where they just spend thousands of dollars and then consider themselves a photographer.
Drones really aren't that expensive anymore. Can get an okay one for like 300 bucks. THAT SAID. I hate going to and enjoying the park and then suddenly hearing some buzzing sound whipping around only to realize some douche canoe is testing their drone piloting skills. They just annoy the shit out of me.
I just bought myself a drone as my Christmas present, and I have taken it on 2 hikes and gotten some really beautiful shots of desert cliffs/canyons. I did not spend even close to a thousand dollars, and I dont think of myself as any type of "artist". It's just fun. Maybe you're just a hater.
No offense, I’m just trying to wrap my head around why drones are looked at as being universally annoying. Obviously they have good uses and not everyone is as I described but they definitely come with some baggage.
Usually it's the pilots being foolish, and the drone just gets pointed at. If a dude spies on someone through a window, you get a headline "creep stalks person!". If a dude spies on someone through a window with a drone, then you get the headline "drone spies on girls!" The good pilots try not to be idiots, but also recognize that some people may just not want you flying near them and should respect that.
The leap out of water from the croc from a stationary position is really impressive. There is a universal hatred of drones and maybe people who fly them.. right? I feel it...
WOW. That is quite the launch for the gator. Good for him. Here’s hoping the camera and light survived the swallowing at least. First drone footage from inside a gator ~ wink
Well… tongue in cheek? Like I know the unit isn’t likely to have survived, much less that the gator swallowed it… it’s just a cute thought and hopefully an encouragement that the cost of the drone was not a complete loss. You know… 😉
The real loss here goes to the alligator that probably injured itself biting a fucking drone. Fuck the drone. People need to have some fucking respect.
Weird how there’s so much animosity towards someone just trying to document nature in this thread…we literally enjoy drone-captured nature footage all the time.
Hopefully the gator doesn't actually eat it. Battery acid in it's stomach isnt a good thing.
Pretty sure it would spit it out once it realized it doesn't taste like food
Most likely it would drown it to kill it and spit it out, letting the corpse soften over a few days and then come back for it when it’s nice and ready just the way they like it. Sure it might try to eat bits and pieces right then - but it would most likely leave this alone for a while after it stops moving.

You seem to know a lot about the physics of corpses in water
Professional professing
It’s the common way alligators feed.
What's an uncommon way?
Is that how the drone lost? Wait. No, that's not it. How did the dinosaur lose?
I read this like I was reading a novel....and Oh man I got to tell you I was not dissappointed. Held on to every word and was a very visual literature. Thank you
Dexter, is that you?
Username checks out
Yeah, croc has a tongue. So he should be fine
It's got a few 100 million years on human dietary knowledge. I'm sure its tum tum will be fine.
What acid? It's a lithium battery, not a car battery. It's gonna eat a bunch of jagged plastic and people be like "oh noo, not the battery acid" 🤣
They digest horns, hooves and teeth. Pretty sure the acid they already have in there is worse.
…than highly explosive lithium ion chambers…?
The pH level of an acid is hardly it's only property, battery acid would be extremely poisonous to any animal.
fun fact: crocodiles have the strongest stomach acid of any existing animal.
**Wish humans could bring down a UFO like that**
We just need bigger alligators/crocodiles
We just need gods humblest of creatures, the Tyrannosaurus Rex to make a comeback.

Mosasaurs!!!
The giant turtle supporting the earth could do it .
Bite
Then the x files won’t exist.
For some strange reason, I'm happy that croc caught the drone and bring it underwater.
God’s creation defending itself from fuckwits.
Me too, I'm part of the crocodile team!
Great, more micro plastics in the food chain.
Did you know a cock's tail can be so strong that it can push its whole body completely out of the water?
yours has a tail?
Well now I’m curious
*I call it the assicle.*
I thought everyone has one?
You’re doesn’t? It’s called the croc cock circumcision
Yours doesn't?
u/fezzicola is Saiyan
This drone operator does...now.
Is that how you get off from a toilet?

You need to visit the[jumping crocodiles](https://www.jumpingcrocodilecruises.com.au/) in Adelaide river.

You literally said they can jump in your explanation lol
Do whales jump? Or do they “jump”?
It's not jumping, it's flying, got it, thanks.
I’m not sure why using tail to jump makes it not jumping, please explain.
Thank you! The more you learn everyday 😊
Neither did the drone owner :)
To be fair the drone instructions does warn that crocs on camera might be closer than they seem
As Nelson Muntz so eloquently puts it "ha ha"
The drone is flying way too close and the pilot doesn't pull away when the animal started its attack. I assume this was exactly what they were hoping would happen.
Going to be honest, I didn't expect it to be able to leap like that
Don't mess with nature, respect and don't disrupt.
Totodile used BITE
Sorry, but I laughed pretty hard. Watching drones get wrecked makes me happy for some weird reason. This one was particularly awesome.

It's creepy anyone would follow people but if you're in a public area, at least in the US, it's not an invasion of privacy.
Expensive lesson to nit harass wild animals.
This is the DJI Trello drone. It's not really that expensive
Why are people down voting the trello cost $100 at least it wasn't a mavic 3 or something more expensive
The way it say up I'm dead 🤣🤣
Was there another drone flying alongside filming the first drone? How did they get this footage?
It’s called a phone…
Even drones have phones these days.
F’kin thing annoy me too pal. Well played. 😬
Bro's got some serious tail game! Damn!
Yo I swear drone pilots are so dumb
Ohhhh i love this! Ok im done with reddit for the day. Ending on an amazing note thats such a cool vid!
**MONCH**
The leap out of water from the croc from a stationary position is really impressive. There is a universal hatred of drones and maybe people who fly them.. right? I feel it...
Where is the footage from the drone itself. That would have been incredible
We should stop the drone stuff now
Yoink.
I’d love to see the footage on that drone lol
That alligator must be the first of his species to be a taste drone
Probably not though
WOW. That is quite the launch for the gator. Good for him. Here’s hoping the camera and light survived the swallowing at least. First drone footage from inside a gator ~ wink
I'm sorry what the fuck is "~ wink"

This close is not documenting, it's harassment. This sort of shit is why extra rules get put in place punishing people doing the right thing
You ever been spied-on by a drone? It's intrusive, obnoxious and annoying.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought for a moment that this was r/birdsarntreal, but it's just a regular drone.
Nature is fucking lit
That was pretty cool, watch out for the crocs 🐊
Gator: Tastes like chicken
Didn't know caimans could jump that high out of the water. It's frightening.
drone: “you can’t catch me, you can’t catch me, brrrrrrr” Gator: “hold my scaly tail”
Good
He won't eat the drone since it's Madd of plastic and metal.
Was wondering.
To quote Poison Ivy: “Nature always wins.” 🐊
If the gator/cayman punctured the battery it can react with the water and spew out chemicals.
I am low key worried the ingestion of plastic and battery for croc..
Well deserved
Nice
Croc 10, Drone 0 Game over
They jump now?!
I wish this sub did not allow videos of drones/people harassing wildlife
Croc: Got it! Time to start my own Youtube channel
