What temperature do crocodiles live in?

Crocodiles thrive in warm environments, typically preferring temperatures between 25°C to 35°C (77°F to 95°F). They are ectothermic, meaning their body temperature is regulated by their surrounding environment. In colder conditions, they may become lethargic or seek out warmer areas to maintain their body heat. Extreme temperatures outside their preferred range can be harmful to their health.
