The type and size of the prey depends mostly on the size of the crocodile. The diet of young crocodiles is made up largely of insects and other invertebrates, since this is the only prey the same animals can easily take. More than 100 species and genera of insects were identified among the food of crocodiles of this age. Of the insects taken there, beetles made up 58% of the diet, including "Hydrophilus" and "Cybister". giant water bugs but also crickets and dragonflies. Arachnids such as "Dolomedes" water spiders are taken, but always secondarily to insects in Uganda and Zambia.
