On average how much does a 16 foot saltwater crocodile weigh?
Is it stronger than a great white shark.
How fast is it.

I wouldn't assume it was stronger but a full grown one would be, a full grown salty can grow up to 33 Ft. long and up to about 2 tons they are generally pretty fast but a 16 ft should weigh around 750 lbs to 1000 lbs The biggest great whites only get around 25 ft and thats like jaws size. Just the head on a 33 ft croc would be almost 4 ft lond a 16 ft croc has a 2 to 3 foot head I actually just watched Crocodile hunter earlier today and they did an episode on finding the biggest salty they could. the biggest was 17 + ft and It took five people to get control of it and they still were getting thrown around it broke one of steve Irwin's ribs.

The larger variety of Crocodile can reach 2,000 pounds; most species are 1,000 pounds or less. A 16footer would probably be in the five-hundreds. When it comes to the powerhouse, they CAN be. Perhaps they are.. I'm not sure.
Crocodiles and Alligators are of a somewhat lethargic movement when on dry land, but when in the water -- they are like a torpedo.
