  • Crocodile oil is extracted from the fatty tissues of crocodiles. Crocodile fat is a product of commercial farming, evident in Thailand. Historically, for centuries crocodile oil has been used by traditional practitioners across the globe, including Chinese Traditional Medicine, Southeast Asia, Ancient Egypt. Crocodile oil was found to be used since the 19th century for different purposes in different cultures. Due to the oil's components, its richness in monounsaturated and Polyunsaturated fats, it is today commonly used as ointment for treatment of skin conditions, skin structure enhancement, collagen deposition, and medicine for illnesses. In recent times, the use of crocodile oil has invited criticism from the use of crocodile oil as there is an increased demand for cruelty-free and vegan-friendly beauty products in consumers of today's society.

  • Krokodilöl wird aus dem Fettgewebe von Krokodilen gewonnen. Hauptsächlich wird Krokodilöl seit dem 19. Jahrhundert in Thailand produziert. Das Öl fand seitdem in verschiedenen Kulturen Anwendung. Historisch wurde das Öl unter anderem für traditionelle Praktiken, wie für die traditionelle chinesische Medizin, verwendet. Heutzutage findet das Öl unter anderem im kosmetischen und medizinischen Bereich Anwendung. Es gibt allerdings auch Kritik an der Verwendung von Krokodilöl, denn die Nachfrage nach tierversuchsfreien und veganen Produkten steigt bei den Verbrauchern der heutigen westlichen Gesellschaften.
