Croc vs. Monitor Lizard | National Geographic

the half-pound water dick up as a small
African bird gets formed a mutual
defense pact with a slightly larger
animal the ferocious half-ton Nile
crocodile you can imagine how the croc
might protect the digger but what can a
bird do for the croc this hungry monitor
lizard hunting for crocodile eggs is
about to find out
the monitor lizard knows it’s near what
at once but on water dickham couple is
having none of it
these tiny bodies seem to hold more than
their share on masters Academy the
monitor lizard doesn’t give up and
neither do the dick ups that are of
course protecting their own heads as
well finally the mother croc has roused
by this ruckus and scares off the lizard
with her growl
alas mama croc can’t guard her eggs all
day
the hundred-degree Heat drives her into
the water and the water de cups are left
guarding both nests which means the
opportunistic monitor lizard is back
sniffing out those Crocs with it’s time
the monitor lizzard knows when to strike
it rains the nest eats what it can and
tries to show you away the rest the croc
realizes what’s going on in her own
backyard but a poignant seed consumes a
mother croc carries eggs for 12 to 14
weeks and then guards them for another
three months before they hatch she’ll
have to wait a year and have another
brood to make up for this croc
catastrophe and when that happens
successful or not the water dick up will
once again be her first line of defense
