Watching a bound crocodile knock a man down with its hard reptile skull.

Davepd2 | sxc.hu) American alligator is a beautiful, magical and terrible monster. Therefore, many parts of their bodies will obviously hurt you. At the front, they have huge toothy teeth, which can clamp your limbs with deadly force. In the back, they have strong tails to stop them. Even the claws of crocodiles are evil, although they usually don't use them to fight.

However, as a hunter in Oz, Florida, I experienced it for myself yesterday (June 6). Even a crocodile with almost all these parts pinned down has the last weapon: its hard skull is incredibly bruised. [Crocodiles and Crocodiles: Who does the photo reveal]

A local branch of National Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) shared a video on Twitter, which started with a crocodile tied to the sidewalk of a residential area, surrounded by a catcher and several policemen. Its chin is sealed, its eyes are blindfolded, its limbs are tied behind its back, and its tail extends harmlessly behind its body. The hunter hit the crocodile on the head several times. His goal is not clear, although crocodile hunters often rub the crocodile's body to calm it down. )

Finally, the animal catcher and the police caught the crocodile and carried it behind the pickup truck. Just as its tail hit the truck, the alligator turned sharply and apparently hit the hunter. The incredible impact made his sunglasses fall off. He fell down and was said to be unconscious. One of the policemen was also knocked down by a twisted tail. The crocodile slipped from the back of the truck and plopped to the ground.

John john hutchinson, an animal sports expert at University of London, said that no one had ever studied how much speed and energy a crocodile's head and hips could transmit, but he knew it was enough to knock a person down.

"Alligators have huge neck muscles to handle their prey, and these muscles have fast twitching fibers, so they can contract quickly," Hutchinson told Life Science. He added that he didn't want to judge the trap for the treatment or final result of crocodiles.

"This is a difficult situation because crocodiles live in densely populated areas and need to be removed, hoping to move to a safer place. Someone may be hurt worse. Hutchinson said that blindfolding crocodiles can calm them down, and the binding action will make people uncomfortable, but it will not cause permanent damage.

"Catchers and policemen put themselves in danger. They didn't kill crocodiles directly, so some people might say that they are taking advantage of a bad situation. He said:
