Last Feast of The Crocodiles (Part 2 of 4)
Amazon.com description:
Filmed during a brutal drought in central Africa, this brilliantly photographed video from National Geographic follows the punishing predicament of animals living along the dwindling Luvuvhu River. As the water level sinks during the dry season, animals, including baboons and impalas, are forced to seek water in pools filled with hippos and deadly crocodiles. At one point the crocodiles, who are the focus of the filming, are described as "artists of violence," and the term seems entirely apt when they are seen striking out with lightning speed from places of total concealment in the water and mud. As the camera lingers on the watering hole, the behavior of increasingly desperate and thirsty animals is shown in all its brutal detail, and portions of this video will have the squeamish averting their eyes. Even though the violent outbursts are handled as tastefully as possible (it is, after all, a National Geographic production), some scenes, such as a violent confrontation between crocodiles and baboons, are heartrending. And while some of the video is inevitably difficult to watch, the photography is always spectacular; some of the shots, such as scenes of a baby hippo blithely wallowing among the crocodiles under the mother hippo's watchful eye, are astounding. This video is both brutal and beautiful, and puts the viewer as close as possible (and desirable) to some of Africa's most amazing wildlife. --Robert J. McNamara
Product Description:
In the daily struggle for survival, terrible thirst drives wildlife to water...even when the water is just inches away from the jaws of a crocodile. During one harsh season, a punishing drought draws some of Africa's most magnificent creatures to the shrinking pools of the Luvuvhu River. Its dwindling waters provide relief for baboons, impala, elephants, lions, water birds and bee-eaters - but also a refuge for scores of hungry crocodiles. Amidst the stunning scenes of nature at its harshest, strange things happen. A baby crocodile basks on top of a hippopotamus. Baboons attack a crocodile that has taken a youngster from the troop. Crocodiles harass a heron and steal its hard-won catch. And hippos calmly wade into the middle of a crocodile feeding frenzy. But the power of nature and her relentless drought may prove greater than even that of the most fearsome beasts. This cruel season may turn out to be the LAST FEAST OF THE CROCODILES.
I could watch this for days. These old original style documentaries are the best.
If anyone knows any docs similar to this that follow a wild "community" like this I would appreciate it, because I love this doc so much
Sameee this is the rearrest one ig
surprised how little soul mashing music they used.
In the animal kingdom, monkey fights are a means of settling disputes and establishing rank
Its just amazing and unreal how the crocs know their place infront of hippos, even baby hippos
Way back in 1999, I was barely 18 months old. My dad, in Rusinga Island, in Lake Victoria Kenya owned a 21" CRT Royal Tech TV powered by around 15" Solar panel or a small portable EM650 Honda Petrol powered Generator. Directed by David Hughes, this legendary Nature Documentary used to draw a forest of people to our house like a Presidential press conference. And here today, 25 years down the line and I recall the views alongside Richard Kiley's(I think he as well narrated the old Legendary Jurassic Park Movie) voice like it was yesterday. To any viewer watching this in 2099, bow unto thee, this was the therapeutic visual honey 100 years back. Goosebumps ❤.👌
Kenya is nature. Have lions, rihone, crocodile and elephant...
The dry season is brutal for animals there, it's almost cruel, but the cycle of plenty goes with the dry times, amazing survival stories. Great doc, thank you 🙏

I'm loving how the hippos are the chillest animals there and completely non-threatening yet you cross them you're done as they are the most powerful.
Hippos kill alot of people, you know that right?
Секс са бока
yeah, but they are also very territorial. they wouldn't let a human anywhere near their young. I don't think they would take too kindly if u went up and slapped them too!
Hippos are not one bit chill and are the most dangerous animal on the planet
The narrator is amazing. He sounds like the same guy who I used to listen to as a kid in the 80s. Loved watching these with my dad
Pretty sure this is the same narrator from the jeeps in Jurassic Park!
How tf do they film all this?
"These great artists of violence are obliged to hold a kindly pose, as the hippo child wanders in her playground of gently smiling dragons, and slobbers on their tails." That's some 5-star quality writing there!

'And slobbers on their tails.' You forgot the punchline.

Makes bo sense.. does the croc have 2 lbs of muscle or the hippo...

I'm getting extremely frustrated trying to find another great national geographic documentary like this one were they follow something specific weather it be a specific group of animals or a specific area. But it's almost like Nat Geo doesn't even want you to find out about the existence of any other decent documentary like that.
No there are plenty, you just have to pay for it. 🤑🤑🤑🤑
@@typicalskateboarder3295 I'm willing to pay. But I can't find them to pay for them. I can't even find titles to look for.

How do you think the other animals react to seeing a baby deer get snatched by a croc? Hippos: Pft. Peasant. Baboon: Knew it. Other Deer: Noble sacrifice. Let’s drink more. Bird: **long inhale** EGGS

They are. A hippo will easily snap even the biggest of crocs in half with a single snap of the jaw, and the crocs are well aware of that. They are far more badass creatures than cartoons want us to believe hehe.

It’s very easy to watch from our sofas & toilets, could you even imagine having to live petrified 24 hours a day that something was going to eat you or your child? I really do feel bad for wild animals.
So glad I was born a human/don't remember my past lives as an animal.
