And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Sforno
“And G-d created the crocodiles” – the generative power imbued it the water was not adequate to produce the first crocodiles without seed, until He created power adequate for this [task].
