Australian crocodile wins battle against a bull shark

It’s Jaws vs. Bigger Jaws.

A crocodile was caught crushing a bull shark to death in Australia on Tuesday — proving that size really does matter.

The 80-year-old croc, named Brutus, is a legendary reptile in Australia. He weighs in at 2 tons and stretches 18 feet long.

His land-and-sea battle stunned onlookers, as he eventually pushed the fish out of the water and onto a river bank, where he delivered the coup de grâce.

The epic fight may have been a revenge attack, as the ferocious Brutus lost his right front foot — apparently in an earlier match with a shark.
