Tailless crocodile caught! Can it even survive?

Something's off with this crocodile—it has no tail! That tail is vital for defense, balance, and its deadly “death roll” attack. Without it, even getting up is a challenge. So, what happened? It could be a birth defect or injury from a fight. But here’s the question: Can it regrow like a lizard? According to researchers at the University of Arizona, yes—but only up to 23 cm, and not perfectly. A rare and fascinating case in the wild. Nature is full of surprises!
