Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The “winners"-saltwater crocodiles-slammed their jaws shut with 3, 700 pounds per square inch (psi), or 16, 460 newtons, of bite force . By contrast, you might tear into a steak with 150 to 200 psi (890 newtons). Hyenas, lions, and tigers generate around 1, 000 psi (4, 450 newtons).

Detailed explanation-2: -With a mind-boggling 3, 700 pounds per square inch of bite force, crocodiles boast 1, 200 psi more than this list’s runner up, and more than twice as much chomping power than the third-place hippopotamus. When it comes to biting, crocodiles simply leave all their competition in the dust.

Detailed explanation-3: -And the strongest known bite force of the entire animal kingdom is…. The Crocodile–specifically, the Saltwater Crocodile (the highest recorded “live” bite of 3700 PSI) and the Nile Crocodile (estimated 4000-5000 PSI)!

Detailed explanation-4: -Crocodile vs Shark: Bite Power and Teeth The crocodile has the strongest bite of any terrestrial animal at 3, 700PSI while also using 66, 4-inch-long teeth on their prey. Sharks have them beat, though. They bite at 4, 000PSI with 300 serrated teeth measuring more than two inches.
