Croc Files (also known as The Crocodile Hunter's Croc Files) is a wildlife documentary television series focusing on crocodiles. It first aired on cable TV channel Animal Planet. It was created as a spin-off to the original Crocodile Hunter and The Crocodile Hunter Diaries series hosted by Australian naturalist Steve Irwin and his wife Terri Irwin.[2] Unlike its predecessor, the series was less hands-on in nature and was geared more for children. In the UK it was aired on ITV. In Australia it was aired on Network Ten.
