On October 2nd, 2024, TikToker[7] @natural_selections posted a video using an original sound consisting of the song "Bum Biddy" in which he makes a joke about crocodiles celebrating a zebra entering the river, garnering over 2.1 million views in a month.

@natural_selections_ The fearsome reputation that the nile crocodile holds as one of Africa’s most powerful predators is more than deserved, with these behemoths sitting as the 2nd largest living crocodilian on our planet. Although typically reaching lengths of 14-16ft (4-5 m) and weighing about 500-1,000lbs (200-450kg), every now and then there are a few crocs that dwarf those proportions. In fact, the largest individuals of this ancient species can reach lengths of 20ft+ (6m) and weigh in at over 2,000lbs (900kg). #wildlife #nature #science #education #animals #wildlifephotography #sciencecommunication #history #crocodiles #africa ♬ original sound – Zach
