Probably not for the specimen itโ€™s using but given the biggest crocs are 2-3x the size of the average itโ€™s possible

Deinosuchus is cool, but Titanoboa is lame.

13m?? I remember when Deinosuchus and all the other mega crocs were being downsized to 10-11m at best. Holding out hopes for some massive Purrusaurus fossils to be found as well

Somebody downsized that same specimen just recently. Crocodilians have very extreme size variation though so itโ€™s probably just a matter of time until one that is undeniably that big is found

Crocodiles and gators literally never stop growing so possibly

Why don't we have an elephant-eating croc

What can an elephant-eating croc actually do though?

Because elephants are not plentiful in terms of prey and also more dangerous than medium sized mammals.
