Croc is a crocodile involved in the Back to the Freezer quest. He can be found by Dundee's camp alongside Dundee and can only be spoken to when wearing the Crocspeak amulet.
Croc used to be enclosed in Ardougne Zoo[1], and escaped one day while his keeper was feeding him in order to search for a purpose in life.[2][3] Despite much travel, he never truly found one and settled down at his current location south of Pollnivneach[4], where his age and exposure to different climates affected his skin colour.[5]
During Croc's time in the zoo, he got to know Chuck and was disbelieving about the conspiracy theories surrounding penguins until the events of Back to the Freezer.[6]

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Croc and Dundee are references to the film Crocodile Dundee.
- Croc's dialogue contains the line "Those were the days of our lives, the bad things in life were so few", which is part of the lyrics to the song These Are the Days of Our Lives by the rock band Queen.
- When speaking to Croc and asking him about his escape, he says "I have climbed highest mountains, I have run through the fields... but I still haven't found what I'm looking for..." This is a set of lyrics to the song I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For by U2.
- When talking to Croc, he says, "If I could turn back time", a reference to the song If I Could Turn Back Time by Cher.
