Do all crocodiles hatch looking like their already planning mischief?
They might be. Crocodiles begin chatting to one another, and to their mother, just before they hatch. Researchers assume that it is some sort of communication, signaling that it is time to emerge and begin a long life of immitating a log, ambush hunting, being hunted in turn by over-zealous documentary hosts, and trying not to end up as a pair of boots or luggage.

Baby gators and crocks are kinda cute. In the ugly duckling sense. The adults? Not so much.

At that size, how much harm could they do, right??? Ha Ha.
