Drought would cause the crocodiles to lose the competition for food. During a drought, water sources decrease, leading to lower water levels in rivers and lakes where crocodiles reside. This would make it more difficult for crocodiles to hide and ambush antelope as they drink, giving lions an advantage on land. Therefore, the best choice is drought.
Antelope are hunted by both crocodiles and lions. When antelope bend down to drink water, they are vulnerable to lions on land and crocodiles in the water. The lions hide in the grass and ambush them, while the crocodiles hide in the water and ambush them.
