Darwin, Australia – National Geographic photographer Trevor Frost captured a wild video of a crocodile launching itself out of the water using only its tail to grab a piece of meat.
Frost says their crocodiles have incredibly strong tails.
“Crocodiles have incredibly strong tails. Their tails propel them in the water like torpedoes from a submarine.”Frost said. “In fact, as you see here, their tails are so strong that they can propel their entire body out of the water.”
Frost has been doing a project with National Geographic on saltwater crocodiles, which are mostly found throughout southern Asia and are called “salties” by Australians.
The photographer has been using video cameras to document the lives of the “salties” near Darwin, a city in northern Australia..
