Hey, this isn't so much a question about the creature itself, but how are some of the ways rulers would keep their crocodilian guests well moisturized and fed if they were part of some sliding trap?

I guess they could do so by incorporating a create food and water spell into the trap, but it would probably be best to use a summon nature's ally spell to summon the crocodiles only when and if the trap gets activated.

In an egyptian-themed adventure, I applied the mummified template from Libris Mortis to cats, jackals, crocodiles and other animals (I know that it's not legal, but that was so cool) to defend tombs. Being undead solves quite nicely the food, drink, sleep and breathing problem!

If you don't own the Libris Mortis, have skeleton/zombie crocodiles and describe them as mummified... It's not as good but it's still nice.

There's also a mummified template in Savage Species, along with spectral and ghost brute which could also work.
