A crocodile from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!
First appearance The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! ("Crocodile Mario")

Crocodiles are real-life animals that have made appearances in the Super Mario franchise. Several generic crocodiles appear in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Crocodile Mario," where they are portrayed with voracious appetites, and inhabit Down Under Land. Kremlings from the Donkey Kong series are notable examples of crocodiles.

In "Crocodile Mario", Kangaroo Koopa steals the Magic Statue, which repels crocodiles, from the Outback. Without the artifact, the crocodiles are free to roam the town. They come close to eating everyone there, almost eating the entire general store and the tree that everyone takes refuge atop of in the process. Mario and Luigi eventually retrieve the Magic Statue and liberate the Outback from the crocodiles just in time, who choose to pursue Kangaroo Koopa instead.
