The dangerous stunt was filmed in Australia earlier this year and amassed almost half a million views before it was deleted.
An unnerving video captures the shirtless influencer standing barefoot in the water before forcefully plucking the animal from the creek.
The creature appears distressed as he flails his tail, while being gripped firmly around the neck.
Speaking in a voiceover, Colton said: "Hey guys, I'm in Australia right now, and we just yoinked a freshwater croc,' Macaulay explained in a voiceover.
"I don't think he was happy about it because he started making these sounds like a chainsaw. Or maybe that's the sound they make when they decide to cry like a little b***h.'
The bizarre video, captioned "catching crocodiles in Australia", has since received a barrage of criticism.
One concerned viewer said: "How stupid are you?"
While others condemned the act as "thoughtless", calling the influencer "stupid" and a "moron".
Meanwhile, World Animal Protection Australia director Ben Pearson slammed the handling of the croc as "unacceptable", calling it "cruelty for the sake of content".
He told the Mail Online: "This is cruelty for the sake of content, and we know the general public would agree handling freshwater crocs in this way is unacceptable.
American influencer sparks outrage in Australia after taking baby wombat from its mom- heads to follow
"Crocodiles are not a photo prop or plaything, and they should be treated with respect.
"Just a quick look at this influencer's account and you can see multiple videos where they're interfering with Aussie wildlife in their homes, from cassowaries to wobbegong sharks.
"Our iconic Australian animals, like all wildlife, are best loved from a distance."
Freshwater crocodiles are native to northern Australia and whilst not considered dangerous they can bite if they feel threatened.
A permit is required to handle them.
Colton's shocking video comes just months after an American hunting influencer sparked outrage after she filmed a video of herself snatching a baby wombat from its mother.
Sam Jones, who claims to be a "wildlife biologist and environmental scientist" posted the now deleted video on Instagram capturing the moment she picked up the animal and ran with it as it dangled around in the air.
After racing across the road with the startled wombat, Jones held it up to the camera and said: "I caught a baby wombat!"
Meanwhile, the baby wombat's mother chased after Jones, appearing extremely distressed.
This was noticed by the man filming the video who said: "Look at the mother, it's chasing after her."
Jones said: 'OK mama's right there and she is p***ed, let's let him go."

Kyle Sandilands has broken his silence after his driver was involved in a devastating accident over the weekend. The radio star, 54, revealed on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Monday that his chauffeur George Plassaras had been involved in a collision that left him with 'multiple broken bones'. 'You may have seen over the weekend, it was all over the news, a head-on collision in Rose Bay in Sydney with a Rolls-Royce and a Mercedes,' he told listeners. 'Well, that was my driver, George.' The radio shock jock added that while the Rolls-Royce driver walked away 'unscathed', George was left with several serious injuries.

The radio star, 54, revealed on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Monday that his chauffeur George Plassaras had been involved in a collision that left him with 'multiple broken bones' These included a broken spine, broken ribs, a ruptured spleen and diaphragm, a torn open abdomen, two broken hips and two broken femurs. Kyle said that George was the 'greatest employee ever' thanks to his actions following the accident. 'What did [he] say when he was taken away in the ambulance? He asked for his mobile phone so he could do what?' he added. 'This is a guy at 4.30 in the morning after he has been cut out of his vehicle, he's been trapped in his van for an hour, this poor bloke. 'And he asks the ambo: "Get my phone so I can make sure Kyle's all right for the week."' The young woman who crashed her $600,000 Rolls-Royce into George's Mercedes was allegedly drunk and will face court. The high-speed, head-on collision occurred around 3.30am on Saturday at New South Head Road in Rose Bay, in the city's east. NSW Police allege LanLan Yang, 23, veered onto the wrong side of the road, slamming into a Mercedes van being driven by the 52-year-old chauffeur. George, who runs Dakota Limousines, was trapped in the wreckage as horrified witnesses rushed to call triple zero. He could be heard yelling for help inside the crushed vehicle, as emergency crews from NSW Police Rescue and Fire and Rescue NSW worked to free him. The crash was captured on nearby CCTV which appeared to show Yang's luxury SUV allegedly veering into oncoming traffic before the violent collision. Police allege Yang carried out a roadside breath test, which returned a positive result, and she was arrested at the scene. At Waverley Police Station, she allegedly refused to undergo a breath analysis. Yang was charged with causing bodily harm by misconduct, being in charge of a motor vehicle, and refusing or failing to submit to breath analysis. She was granted conditional bail and ordered to surrender her passport. Under the strict conditions, she has been prohibited from driving a car and must remain at her Waverley mansion between 8pm and 6am daily. Yang is scheduled to appear at Downing Centre Local Court on August 15.

Footy bad boy Jordan De Goey reveals baby joy with his TV star girlfriend Aisha Jade McKinnon

Collingwood star Jordan De Goey has revealed he and partner Aisha Jade McKinnon are expecting their first child, calling the joyful news 'the greatest surprise of them all'. The couple made the big reveal on Instagram, sharing a photo of De Goey's hands cradling McKinnon's baby bump, accompanied by an ultrasound video and a clip of the moment the overjoyed Magpies forward found out he is going to be a dad. 'In the midst of our changing lives we were blessed with the greatest surprise of them all, baby girl coming soon,' read the caption on the post. Their announcement drew congratulatory messages from De Goey's teammates Isaac Quaynor and Mason Cox, as well as Annalise Dalins, the fiancée of Pies star Josh Daicos. McKinnon - who starred on Big Brother and is forging a career in fashion design - made their romance official last October when they attended Collingwood's best and fairest night. The couple have bought a farm together and McKinnon has previously opened up about her man's reputation as a bad boy off the field. The footy glamour couple are due to have a daughter - with the announcement drawing messages of congratulations from other AFL stars De Goey briefly ended up in a New York jail in October 2021 after pleading not guilty to a charge of forcible touching in a New York night club, and he made headlines in 2022 when a video emerged of him touching and exposing a woman's breast at a nightclub in Bali. The 29-year-old was slammed by fans and footy experts when he said he had 'made mistakes' because he has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. 'Late last year, I was diagnosed with ADHD and I am trying to become more aware of why I make mistakes that I do. I have again made a mistake – this is an ongoing journey for me – and I remain absolutely committed to changing,' De Goey said in an official Collingwood statement. He joked that he would have to 'lock himself inside his house to stay out of trouble' before going on to star for Collingwood as they won the premiership in 2023. 'It's sad because I know a very different Jordy,' McKinnon said in December last year. 'He's really lovely. We definitely value our privacy, we connected on that, and we both have unique jobs and support each other.' De Goey has only played five games this year as premiership favourites Collingwood sit atop the ladder. Problems with his Achilles tendon and concussion have kept him out of the AFL since round nine, but he took a big step on Saturday as he played in the VFL.

Outback Wrangler Matt Wright is supported by his wife as he enters plea over helicopter crash that killed his co-star

Outback Wrangler's Matt Wright has pleaded not guilty to attempting to pervert the course of justice more than three years after a fatal helicopter crash. The reality TV star was charged following the crash that killed co-star Chris 'Willow' Wilson in February 2022. Wearing a light blue shirt and blue jeans, Wright appeared calm when he fronted the Supreme Court in Darwin on Monday. He entered not guilty pleas for three counts of attempting to pervert the course of justice when he was arraigned, kissing his wife during an adjournment. The 2022 crash in remote West Arnhem Land killed Mr Wilson, with pilot Sebastian Robinson also seriously injured. The trial is scheduled to begin on Wednesday and is expected to take four weeks, hearing from about 25 witnesses. Wright rose to fame starring in National Geographic's Outback Wrangler and Netflix series Wild Croc Territory.
