- Africa's crocodiles face stiff competition for their food. Fortunately for them, they are blessed with an even greater variety of prey. Over millions of years, these two factors have honed them into versatile, opportunistic hunters - master predators from the age of the dinosaurs.
Love the African folklore stories at the beginnings of these videos...
Excellent doc! Really enjoyed the ending, bittersweet. Loved it. Will watch again.
Wonderful documentary.. Thanks for sharing.
Great video - sustained my interest. The commentary was top notch and so was the videography. It's such a different style to the more bombastic approach taken by other producers. Thank you.
British narrations are best, that's why. David Attenborough is the King.
@@seltaeb3302 yet you can't even construct a single sentence without pathetic grammar mistakes lmao 😂
The music was a great compliment to the video.
I love the fact that sad music plays while a hippo dies while a crocodile nearby is like 'MEAT IS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS' while the rest of the hippos watch the crocodiles eat their fellow hippo into bits and pieces thinking 'THERE GOES FRED'
the best documentary i have ever seen about crocs
Especially the 2 other species of African Crocodiles besides the Nile Crocodile.
A superb doc in every way..👍👍
This is a very fine docu. Crocs and Sharks are my favorit wild animals on earth.
Me Nile crocodiles
Black Caiman here
Great show. Crocodiles are my FAVORITE animal. ❤️❤️❤️
Feel like this old documentary has a lot of false information. But still a very good one.
That was captivating !! I'm usually not to interested in crocodiles since you always get a video of shredded wilderbiests and zebras .But this was calming and beautifully done despite the BIG teeth:-) the croc mom is almost adorable in her care and isn't it funny how males of EVERY species make a fool of themselves to get a females attention :-))
One of the best documentaries on corocodiles
Hard core wind in the willows....love it!
(2 Months Later) Fun Fact: Peter Terry The Narrator of this Program previously Narrated a 2000 Crocodile Documentary called “An African River Goddess: The Nile Crocodiles of Ndumo”. It was also seen on Animal Planet Safari’s Cold Blooded Monsters in the start of the 21st Century.
Amazing majestic creatures.
I've watched about 50 alligator/croc/caiman/gharial documentaries on CZcams so far
Live for 100 years ...amazing ...dinosaur D.N.A. for certain
Don't mess with a crocodile ...that is all I have to say ...respect them ...make a suitcase out of them ...shoes ...but respect them ...bow, to these critters
Excellent video 📹 👏 crocodile 🐊 the beast 💪 of all time ⏲.
Don't forget my favourite Roald Dahl book which is about a Nile crocodile.
He silence it with the snap of his jaws 😂
By existence of these giant monsters who can definitely say that dinosauts priod ended.they are the same.at least should be.thank you for this precious video.infomative and anbsoprtive!
A very good documentary - which, unfortunately, was almost ruined for me by the extreme number of ad breaks. Maybe 15-20. Ridiculous.
Very good video of various types of animals I like
How do we know there's 7000 distinct species of Chameleon? They're Chameleons! They could all be the same species!
lol. I get it !
Really interesting video. Keep doing it!
Crocs are very dangerous, I wish a could have one as pet and bodyguard at home XD
Hope to see more from you :)
Here in the UK a man has a pet Alligator, full size, in his house! He cuddles it. They get on famously. He lives on his own. Now.. look it up on CZcams.
Human greed will destroy of all these magnificent beasts sooner or later.
Crocodiles can go nearly a whole year without eating or moving from one spot
200 million years in the earth ... unbelievable creature
Crocodiles are pretty impressive animals.
20:12 Kosi/Predator Bay: There's another great documentary on Real Wild exclusively on this bay in Africa and the Croc/Shark relationship.
Great documentary and very detailed too.
Excellent work ...violin impressive
nature is so scary but fascinating
22:18 Took the camera off the pied kingfisher because he/she probably died trying to swallow. Great documentary.
My love for crocodilians is on another level
mine too.
Excellent video 😊
Most beautiful animal un the world
No one can mess with the beast! Except the Hippo - they can do whatever they like! 🤣
Everyone's gangsta till a hippo shows up.
Elephant: Am I joke to you?
💯💯💯💯
Say hi to an adult male lion
I just find it amazing to see a creature that hasn’t changed since pre historic times..Awesome
@@anishtripathy6259 a male lion can't do much to an adult hippo or a full grown Nile croc on his own.
Great video🐊
Amazing documentary
i love Crocodile's and thei are one of mi favorite animals
video uploaded in 2020 and its 480p? that's a crime!
Top 5 my favorite african hunters:
1- Nile crocodile
2- Leopard
3- Cheetah
4- African wild dog
5- Rock python
Wild hunting dogs have got to be number 1
23:30
Narrator - "The 2 normally have a truce"
Me - i wonder why
Hippo - "Cause we Damn well can boy!"
Then shows me
Hippos are the only creatures i cheer on when they bullying others
The perfect killing machines, no need to evolve because they've been perfectly adapted to their environment for tens of millions of years. Living dinosaurs.
O
@Ramona Rael That's because birds are closer to dinosaurs lol. Most scientists don't think that crocodiles have changed in evolutionary terms for at least 100 million years.
@@steenparker7396 A
Really never understood the logic or how its scientifically proven that crocs are dinosuars
@@DensilGrant By carbon dating skeletons that they've found of crocs that were alive tens of millions of years ago.
Nice video, but WAY to many adverts!
This is an excellent documentary with Peter providing the perfect commentary (a total absence of "er", "you know", "I mean", "kind of" and "like") with a fine voice.
Some years ago, while working in Sri Lanka I received a request from a biologist in the UK to supply his lab with some crocodile blood. Reflection suggested that the underside of the base of the tail might provide a convenient location for obtaining a blood sample. With help from a vet, the sample was obtained and sent. Elsewhere, I heard that crocs rarely, if ever, suffer from any infectious diseases.
I think sharks are that way as well.
AND THE UHHHH OR UMMMM
@@myztixwenzmatta777
But, erm, err and err, erm, err. Touché bruh.
But.. its like... you know..ehm
Peter? Peter who?
At 15:47 he's talking about Deinosuchus. But sadly new estimates reduced it's length but who knows they would have grown even bigger.
Well done I really enjoyed it 😏👌
"Hippos are known to mourn another mammals death..." Except when they kill their own offspring or humans for the fun of it.
lol dude haha
Which is the oldest? A roach or a crocodile.
Great video but seems like crocodiles stops growing...
Favorite animal.
Crodile leather is good for shoes , bags and more .
I love crocs..
Love you ❤ 😍 ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘❤💜
Even the lions humble themselves against the crocs
Awesome Footish , Thank you 😊
Footage man
The size of a Thumb....😆😆😆😆😂😂 could he of said that anymore funny
That's one documentary you can sink your teeth in to
Enjoy this video very interesting
Crocodiles are the best
This is interesting....
I'd suggest studying the global historical record & the wealth of accounts describing actual encounters with massive reptiles if you think dragons are mythological or that dinosaurs lived tens or hundreds of millions of years ago.
There is no way they can tell 240 million years ago
G S 09 There are numerous ways they work these things out. Quite accurate these days too.
God feeds them ...He feeds you also
Very Final Bonus Comment: 36:44 I just double checked that one, it’s a Rock Monitor. Like I said, it’s different from the Nile Monitor & of course the Savannah Monitor that was seen on this Wild Story program on Crocodiles.
In 2008 there is a rumour about a man eating crocodile named Gustave from Burundi who grows up to 9m in length (20 ft long) and weights up to 900 kg (half a tone) and was recorded to kill an adult hippo with his powerful jaws. And he has killed
The ending was really sad
Amazing
Surprised you didn't show the crocodile gallop that smaller and younger crocs can do
"Long ago, when animals ruled the world" *insert snarky comment about humans being animals*
How do you know crocs hate frogs for that lol 😂 did they tell you 😂 I love docos like these but when i hear shit like that i just laugh
4:39 It’s the African Slender Snouted Crocodile. It’s like an African version of both The False Gharial from South East Asia & The Orinoco Crocodile from South America.
So much for crocs like to store large prey, allowing it to decompose, so it would be easier to tear apart later.
08:16 He's wrong. Crocodiles do sometimes use their tails to knock prey into their jaws; I've seen it done many times.
To knock prey into their jaws? 🤔 ... not so sure about that... seen them use it defensively a lot but never that... can't even see how that would work
And they can also eat rotten meat np
"It's only fresh meat for these crocodiles"....30 minutes later...The crocs feast on a dead hippo.
It just died so the flesh isn't rotting yet so its still considered fresh
Crocs are good for 3 things ...luggage, shoes, and boots ... heh, heh, heh
Nile crocodiles stages of hunting from a newborn to a suprem apex predator :
Newborns hunt insects, lizards & fishes
Medium sized Juveniles hunt birds & baboons
Adult sized crocs hunt zebra, wildebeest, buffalos, antelopes & even baby hippos.
#MOTHERNATURE
from all turtles alive that they could have shown at the beginning about reptile species they take the one that got a massiv scar from a propellerboat on its shell
3:35 "...boa constrictor which lives in ...Madagascar..." Do some fact checking, can't you? That's a Malagasy Ground Boa. There are NO examples of Boa constrictor in Madagascar. Boa constrictor is in South America What you're calling Boa constrictor is actually
a whole different genus " Acrantophis madagascariensis "
Thank you. Save me the trouble
But a very ancient thumb that knew séductive bubbles
Brilliant
This over dependence on the sun seems a cruel natural joke played on these sweet creatures .
3:15 that's a hefty chonker
I have a Question!
Just today, I introduced a new category of expression for an evolutionary step that is approximately 400 million years . A time in which genes transcend~ the material universal time of information transfer. life phenomenon . So following the evolution of alligator species I have a problem thinking given by today's observations that the difference in one degree Celsius makes the difference between the formation of male or female individuals. That the mother crocodile when laying eggs determines that temperature with the depth of egg burial! Although it is clear to me that the time of climate change lasts for tens of thousands and millions of years, it is not clear to me how alligator species have resisted and survived such changes? . And let's say species other than reptors didn't ??
Ohhhh so that's where the saying comes from....:come on, get cracking'
This was amazing.
I would not wanna get bit by one of those things.
Dammit frog, look what you did
Maybe they should eat greens then WOW
Dunia yako na yangu..
kipindi ya ajabu..
Mamba.. In Swahili..
That's not true they only eat fresh meat. They are known to tangle then underwater and eat the rotting meat too.
Final Bonus Comment: 3:36-3:44 I know what that is, It’s the Madagascar Tree Boa. 3:46 Is that a Savannah Monitor? 36:44 Could that be a Savannah Monitor too? It looks different from the Nile Monitor that was just seen.
Crocey mate!
Go to 1:00 to start this documentary
YEAH!!
Pea brains ...like some humans I know
This is a really old documentary.
... and? 🤷🏾♂️
ya ajabu..
