Sometimes it happens:

I think a fully grown adult saltwater croc into the water would be a serious test for any adult male tiger... Perhaps a too serious test, the tiger being not in its element. When we speak about tiger vs croc fights, it always concerns the Mugger crocodile, never the saltwater croc, bigger and more aggressive (the most aggressive croc with the Nile croc):

I don't want to be a killjoy, but no one animal is invulnerable.

Just to put loose ends together, there have been 4 articles about one case and now in my posting #64 there is a good description about that case from 2011. Sometimes old issues come again to discussion. This one was now one of those where some new information could be found, which haven´t been here before. At least not in this thread. This same case has been in discussion in some other thread too lately, but in that was only that Telegraph article if I remember right.

But now it should be clear, that in August 2011 there was one tigress killed by saltwater crocodile at Sundarban. Reply
