A crocodile has a massive advantage over a lion in deep water, but the lion wins on dry land. Therefore, there must exist a depth of water that makes it an even fight.

I like this one. And I think you could go even further, there should be a level of water for each aquatic animal vs. terrestrial animal fight that makes it an even one. I wonder what it’d be for shark vs. human.
Does the lion win on dry land? Crocodiles are intense.
Are you sure the lion wins on dry land?
I’m not even sure the lion consistently wins on land
Whoever wins the cycle race will win the triathlon
I’m pretty sure the crocodile wins on dry land as well.
Only takes a few inches to be able to drown, so likely not very deep.
Years ago I read a novel called Bear v. shark by Chris Bachelder. This is kind of what happens. It’s a blood sport that everyone is obsessed with, and takes place in a shallow swimming pool. This book also taught me what an SUV is. Every time I hear SUV, I think of Bear v. Shark.
Even on dry land a large crocodile would be dangerous for a lion. Those things are no joke.
Intermediate Value Theroem
While they fight I have it on good authority that if you dip your testicles between them they stop…
But only long enough for your instant karma.
What is the point at which a swimming moose gets beaten by an orca consistently?

Intermediate value theorem from calculus
Similar to one i have always thought about. In a nuclear explosion there will be a distance where things in your freezer must be perfectly cooked.
I call it the pizza line in my head
No way a Lionel survives a actual bite from a crocodile or keeps their paw after a deathroll. Just no way.
Sea Lion enters the chat. Hold my beer.
I would assume the moment the crocodile can float, as the weight of the water will slow the lion down scaled to depth, while the croc will go from low effectiveness to full effectiveness in 1 step.
I were a lion and your were a tuna, I would swim out into the middle of the ocean and eat you. And then, I’d bang your tuna girlfriend.
Yeah but could a tuna kill a lion?
