Any animal in a zoo is characteristic only of a neurotic jailed animal.
I'm ignorant about Australian crocs, but male alligators have large
territories and wander. Confine two humans in a cell with nothing to do
and see what happens.
Alligators - and as far as I know crocs - never eat their mates in the
wild.

interpreted every attempt to introduce it to a potential mate as an
invitation to dinner.

The crocodilians are closely related to birds, moreso than to the reptiles
- they build nests, guard their young, rear them, are monogamous at least
at times, have territories, etc.
