A drought would cause the crocodiles to lose the competition for food. During a drought, water levels may fall, reducing the available habitat and ambush opportunities for crocodiles. This would make it more difficult for them to hunt antelope, while land predators like lions might still thrive as they can hunt from the grasslands.
