There are many enemies that fill up thelevels Croc has to traverse. They take on many shapes and forms, which are influenced by the area they appear in. This list does not include the entire list of Dantinis or any of the Guardians created by Baron Dante. Most enemies can be killed using a tail-attack or stomp, in which case they will respawn after about ten seconds. Some cannot be killed and some don't attack.
