Crocodiles

Crocodiles is one of the most interesting animals laying eggs because the nest temperature will determine the sex of the offsprings. These aquatic reptiles, like all reptiles, lay their eggs on the ground. They build nests on the riverside, and female crocodiles are famous for being attentive mothers who aggressively guard their nests to safeguard them from predators until they are ready to hatch

Androgenic hormones occur inside the egg when the temperature in the nest rises beyond 34 degrees Celsius (93.2 degrees Fahrenheit). As a result, male offspring are produced. Because these hormones are not produced at lower temperatures, the embryos remain female. Therefore, a nest on a sunny riverbank will almost certainly generate male crocodiles, whereas a shaded nest will almost certainly generate females. When the hatchlings begin to emerge, the female crocodile transports them to the water by carrying them in her throat pouch.

Even though crocodiles are renowned for their power, you might be surprised to find that the majority of their young don't survive past their first birthdays. This is due to the fact that there are several crocodile predators, such as lizards, hyenas, and even other crocodiles. Because of this, several crocodile species are categorized as endangered.
