i have a crocodile. what is a good phrase that i can say in spanish about a croc?
thanks sooo much!

You could mention somehow that the crocodile is used in phrases such as "See you later, alligator -- in awhile, crocodile" or that sorta thing. lol its the best i can think of!!

You can say

el cocodrilo es un animal peligroso
tiene unna boca grande
y dientes filosos.
So... the crocodile is a dangerous animal, it has a big mouth and sharp
teeth
