The Crocodile's Strong: .low. Sir Samnel Baker In his “Wild Beasts” says that the power of the Jaws of the crocodile is terrific. Once he had the metal of a large hook, the thickness of ordinary telegraph wire, onipletely bent together, the barbed point being pressed tightly against the shank and rendered useless. This com pression was caused by the snap of the Jaws when seizing n live (luck which he h/id used ns a bait, the hook being fastened benenth one wing. On one occasion he found a fish weighing sev enty pounds bitten clean through asTlf divided by n knife. This, again, was the work of a snap from the Jaws of a crocodile. M. Paul Bert once made experiments on the strength of a croc odile’s Jaws by means of a dvnnmome- He found that a crocodile weigh ing 120 pounds exerted a force of 80S pounds in closing his Jaw. The lion haA an enormous Jaw power. On oue occasion an African traveler pushed the butt end of his gun into a lion’s mouth, and the pressure of the Jaws cracked it as though it bad been struck by a steam hummer.
