Yeah croc gotta taste nasty. Most meat eating animals (like humans) avoid eating other meat eating animals if they can.

Really? Humans have been eating pig/boar, fish (including shark), crustaceans and cephalopods for a very long time. My understanding was that humans tended to eat more herbivores than carnivores or omnivores more because they’re prey that usually don’t fight back, making them easier to hunt or farm, whereas omnivores and carnivores are hunters themselves and therefore have offensive tools they can use defensively.
