National Geographic - Crocodiles Here Be Dragons

Despite their deserved reputation as fearsome hunters, African crocodiles are surprisingly vulnerable prey. This 50-minute entry into the National Geographic canon chronicles the lives of these 16-foot long, 1-ton beasts that Africans call "the animal that kills while smiling." When not taking down unsuspecting wildebeests come to quench their thirst on the banks of the Grumeti River in Tanzania, the female crocodiles spend a good part of their year nurturing first their eggs and then their young. A mama crocodile may see 80 youngsters into the world each year, but an astonishing 90 percent will fall victim to the very animals their mother would have for dinner: monitor lizards, mongooses, perch. Actor Richard Kiley narrates a year in the life of these progeny of the dinosaurs. Both the cinematography and its subject matter are compelling, whether the "dragons" are using their famously powerful jaws to crush wildlife or tenderly carry their young.
