are crocodiles immune to disease? I heard on the news a few years ago that they were looking to if crocodiles are immune to disease because even after they're cut up in a fight they don't seem to get poorly, even though they live in water with lots of disease

I think they'd discovered that crocodiles aren't just immune to the disease in the water, but it looked like they are immune to all forms of disease. I've not heard much about it since, but I would have thought that this would be one of the biggest breakthroughs in modern science as road to curing thousands of diseases in animals and humans
