These animals aren't infected with the Las Plagas virus; they're just grumpy! If you enter the water, you may encounter a crocodile. While they are slow to move, they'll make a leap for you if they can get close, and their bites will instantly kill you. While you can kill them with weapons, their high health makes simply running away from them a better strategy.

Crocodiles are encountered in the marshlands near Kijuju by BSAA partners Sheva Alomar and Chris Redfield. They dwell in waist-deep water and are capable of killing either of them with a single bite. They can be killed, although they only surface when prey is nearby, and there are about eight of them in the first area you encounter them, making it wiser and more prudent to simply run past them. They are very large, roughly fifteen to twenty feet long, and appear to be albinos, although it is unclear whether they are infected by Las Plagas or are simply a very large local species. If the latter is the case, it may be the first time in the series that one of the enemies is an ordinary, if dangerous, animal.

It is interesting to note that if the player is with an AI partner, the crocodiles and AI will mutually ignore one another.

During the initial cutscene of the Execution Grounds, Ndipaya appear to feed a crocodile an agent. Also, if the Majini fall into the water after being shot, the crocodiles will surface and devour them as well.

Encounters:
Crocodiles are first encountered in the Marshlands area where they dwell the waters surrounding a small fort at the east edge of the map. Around eight of them appear and will follow the player if they get too close, making it hard but not impossible to get past all of them. An extra crocodile will also appear when you return from the fort near the ramp leading to the hovercraft.

They are also encountered in the execution grounds as you ride a raft towards a locked door but cannot be killed as you only dodge their attacks.

Attacks:
Bite: This is the only attack they have, but it's an instant death attack.

Strategy:
If you are new to the game, just run past them because it's useless to try to fight them as they take a lot of hits. Also, don't ever knife them. However if you decide to fight keep your distance and attempt to use hand grenades as they kill them in one hit. Grenade launchers with explosive rounds work better as the grenades detonate immediately and are easier to aim. If playing on Co-op Mode, it is possible to have one of the players "run interference" on the crocodiles, luring them out for the other player to take shots at them. Due to their resilience to most arms, they should only be engaged with a Rifle or a Magnum, if one is not attacking with grenades.
