Mugger Crocodile Ambushes Deer at Watering Hole | Planet Earth III | BBC Earth
In South-Eastern Sri Lanka, the dry season brings a wide variety of animals to the watering hole to drink. Unluckily for them, a predator as old as the dinosaurs is waiting to eat.

The crocodile looks like he is wearing a wedding dress 😇
You could have imagined it XD
Nothing more sad than anthropomorphising wild animals
You may now eat the bride
Lol 😅
That crocodrile has an insane drip 🔥🔥🔥😎🔥🔥🔥
The antlers on the deer are so beautiful
Imagine the first Human to witness a croc attack something bro’s mind must’ve been blown 😂😂
at least back they they were not saying bro
ok bro, u good bro? You need help bro?@@royed31
@@royed31At the time humanity would've first discovered a crocodile we probably weren't saying too much of anything.
He said ugg ugg ohhh lol
drives me crazy when I hear Indians saying bro every second word!@@royed31
That one was practically covered in plants, and smiling!
4:14 That deer didn’t “jump” there… it was pulled in by another croc.
good eyes!
Oh deer!
Look at that, one the most badass animals to ever exist.
And even a crocodile!
@@zoonisha4387I mean deer are pretty cool, an animal that regularly grows and sheds literal bone just because the females like it.
@@astick5249 ikr? so badass.
@bs1820 "Lookah dat. Innit a lil' honey."
Sadly in South Asia Mugger Croc still Prey of Bengal Tiger
The croc looks like a Midsomar may queen 😂
That crocodile looks like a bulbasaur🤣🤣
200 million years? That's as far back as the Early Jurassic!
The crocodilian form predates the dinosaur, as does the shark. Both species predated and then outlasted the dinosaurs and the extinction event that wiped them out.
And the claim is completely FALSE. Pseudosuchia (crocs and their relatives) used to be FAR MORE diverse than what we have now. There used to be dinosaur-mimicking crocs, mammal-like crocs (hell, some were converging on cats, dogs, and RATS of all things), whale-like and dolphine-like crocs, etc, etc. Even up to within the past few thousand years there were still full-on terrestrial crocs. And now all we're left with are the generic, comparatively boring semi-aquatic ambush predators most people are now familiar with, which has left us pretty biased in how we view this absolutely amazing clade. It's honestly rather sad.
@@jessejarmon2100 I think their claim was that the shape of the semiaquatic ambush predator is what hasn't changed in hundreds of millions of years. It was already perfect back then.
@@negativeindustrialcrocodile doesn’t predate dinosaurs sharks do but dinosaurs evolved alongside crocodiles not after them
Croc Looks like attending brazilian carnival😅
Will be watching planet earth 3 during the winter break.
Such an amazing creature!
I was walking along a path and about to cross a bridge. A huge female crocodile spots me and climbs up the embankment to get closer to me. As it comes to a stop, a Gannet makes a landing next to it. The crocodile promptly opens it's jaws, swings about a foot to it's right, clamps down on the unfortunate Gannet, and with just 2 bites and some crunching noises later, the Gannet is dead and disappearing down the croc's mouth. That Gannet had no idea that crocodile was there, and it promptly took the Gannet by surprise. Crocodiles don't distinguish, if a bird gets close enough to be food, they will take it. I didn't have my mobile phone out at the time or that could have been the craziest crocodile hunting video on KZhead! I kept going, not stopping to care what the crocodile was going to target for it's next meal! This all happened within four seconds at least it seemed like it. Gannet lands, snap crunch snap crunch, and it's gone.
I swear if those crocodile were in the army. Camouflage won't be a problem 😅
The green hat of plants helped the crocodile to ambush even more...
their version of a ghillie suit
Closest thing we'll get to a real Venusaur.
Venusaur?
I only see feraligatr here.
You both dumb, it's krookodile the red-black one
@@5Li0n50fGod7Its Pokémon that looks like the crocodile. (I had to google this I didn’t understand either)
Crocodiles are so fascinating that our team members asked themselves, but what do their lives underwater look like? So our crew dived with crocodiles and got some amazing shots!
Hmm, crocodiles can be pretty aggressive towards humans unlike gators,consider your team really protected by god
Crocodile adorn like a Greek bride in nature 🇱🇰🌊🐊
Voiceover woman: The waterhole supports an array of species *who coexist alongside each other peacefully* Me: Err... are you aware this clip is of crocodiles tearing animals apart? 😂
that nature farming not dineing on every last one... eaters buy if its on the menue but they aint the farmers or the reproducer ..if it wasnt balanced society would munch themself out of the menue ...thats the point of reservations to keep it all stayable...
Predators leveling up,a camouflage 😅😅
3:02 What kind of ants are those? Looks like one is biting the crocs eyebrow
Some kind of usually tree dwelling ant species it seems. It has a rather painful bite
Humans have hard luck escaping from them as well. The worst thing is sometimes they plan their attacks if you decide to bathe at one place for a long time period in rivers or lakes
Astounded!! To see herbs on croc back
Amazing!!!
When the urge to drink and to eat collided
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Majestic, powerful, ancient predator... oh look! He's got a little hat!
This that gator snoop was talkin about
He's just like me when I play runescape and wait for another player to enter the abyss
amazing how mather nature create this battle of machine in the years, 200 miolion of years ilove it too much
LOOKS LIKE HE IS GUNNA HULA DANCE. I WAS WAITING FOR THAT .
who needs to evolve when your method of survival is so reliable! 200 MILLION years!!!
"Heyah.... in the scorched turrain..."
Amazing !!
3:29 that deer didnt even move
When your highest stats are in the worst looking armor.
Read M. M. Kaye's memoirs. In one of them, she describes a hunt for a mugger in India during a Christmas hunting camp in either the teens or the twenties of the 20th century, about 100 years ago. The books are: "The Sun In the Morning," "Golden Afternoon," and "Enchanted Evening." They cover her life from 1908 - 1943.
Gelungenes Video. Gruss Jürgen 🤠

3:34 Man, look at the rack on that buck! Lol
I always root for the predators, the grazers have it too easy.
It's like a Bulbasaur
So Epic
Well buddy, you had to take one for the team. Got caught in the wrong spot
Wish planet earth did the black caiman, they’re even more awesome and are the only crocodilian that regularly preys on a dolphin species.
Dude was all Ghillied up

❤My motherland❤

Prehistoric Planet + Primeval = 2:22
Sri Lankan crocodile 🐊 are average 1-2 feet longer due to Apex predicators in sri lanka
very successful predator
Better find Sir David to illustrate the thing
renekton with its jungle skin
ghillie suit squad
I came here to see deah being ripped apart and walked away disappointed.
How do you get ambushed by this 😂 who told bro no one could see him 😭😭😭😭
These muggers are like people who play the lottery. Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose; nevertheless I have my game plan.
FAFO…crocodile style! 🐊
"Wata" (water) is a Kenyan accent. I think the narrator is Kenyan.
Next! Her voice is annoying! Sir Attenborough you cant leave us!❤
When it will release in India
NI (natural intelligence), archosaur version. "Clever girl .."
This must be in India ...the deer , monkey etc
@lochamoezung4967 If you read the video description, you'll find it's not india. They don't have a monopoly on deer or monkeys.
Wedding you mean death
How long can a crocodile live in the wild? How could it evolve very little while other species changed a lot?
They can age over 70 years in the wild. It evolved very little because it was very successful. There was no need for change.
@@HyeonsikLi Thanks for the info
You don't have to leave pauses between every word we're not stupid
Looks like an orphan cub getting his exercize! His right wrist looks sore.
