To get a crocodile to follow you in Once Human, you generally need to capture or tame it first , then place it in your territory and keep its food and water up so its tameness rises. Crocodiles can be fed meat, fish, or Meat Pellet Feed, and their tameness increases when hunger and hydration stay above 30%.

What to do

  1. Find a crocodile spawn, with Harborside in Broken Delta and Chalk Peak commonly mentioned as reliable areas.
  1. Lower its health until it can be subdued, then use a tranquilizer to capture it.
  1. Return to your territory and place the crocodile on the ground.
  1. Put food and water into an animal trough, or drop them nearby if needed.
  1. Wait for tameness to rise; once it reaches the tame threshold, the crocodile should stop being hostile and effectively stay with your base setup.

Helpful notes

  • Fish and large animal meat are good food choices, and crocodiles also accept Meat Pellet Feed.
  • If hunger or hydration hits zero, tameness drops.
  • Some guides note crocodiles can produce Crocodile Eggs once fully tamed.

Quick scoop

The key idea is: you do not make a wild croc “follow” you directly ; you capture it, place it in your territory, and keep it fed and watered until it behaves like your tamed animal.

TL;DR

Capture the crocodile, place it in your territory, feed it meat or fish, keep water available, and let tameness build over time.
