== Advertising ==
* Averted with Sir Chomps-A-Lot from [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DH1LhN7naSE this 1994 commercial]. He seems like a decent sort.
* Sugar Bear deals with one in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_xFVr0PlX4 this 1987 commercial] for Super Golden Crisp.
== Anime and Manga ==
* In ''[[One Piece]]'', the [[The Chessmaster|Shichibukai Sir Crocodile]] keeps several, gargantuan Crocodile monsters in his lair. They can easly bite and chomp down stone.
Line 27 ⟶ 31:
* The very first target of ''[[Toriko]]'' was the "Gararadile", a huge, eight-legged crocodile and a class 5 monster. That particular one was a 300 years old and huge gararadile and a class 8 beastie, [[The Worf Effect|but was easily killed and eaten by Toriko]].
* [[Ranma ½]]: The Kodachi household keeps a pet crocodile named Mister Turtle.
== Comic Books ==
Line 136 ⟶ 139:
* In Disney's ''[[Where's My Water?]]'', this is subverted by the friendly nice guy Swampy, and played straight by the grumpy [[Jerkass]] Cranky.
* [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Vector the Crocodile]] is another subversion. He may be loud, bossy, and rude, but he's a good guy at heart, often taking cases for free.
* In ''[[Pitfall]]'', one recurring hazard that Harry has to maneuver over is a pit with three crocodiles. This in emphasized in the ''[[Saturday Supercade]]'' shorts, the three crocodiles being [[Super-Persistent Predator]]s who follow him ''everywhere''.
* In ''[[Dwarf Fortress]]'' crocodiles and alligators are fairly nasty, but normally just lie in ambush until the food presents itself. They are also domesticable, and [[Milking the Monster|often end up]] bred as source of valuable materials (especially Cave crocodile), as guard beasts (you can't train them like war dogs, but at their size, there's not much need) and for producing [[Explosive Breeder|lots of eggs]]. Goblins also sometimes breed cave crocs, and ''[[Horse of a Different Color|use them as mounts]]''.
* ''[[Frogger]]''; the river that the player has to cross has alligators in it, [[Helpful Mook]]s so long as they stay away from their mouths. Plus one will occasionally lurk in one of the lily pads that serve as the goal, making that pad unsafe for a minute or two.
