Nile crocodiles, one of the most impressive creatures in the world, live in groups in African rivers. Water comes and goes in the wilds of Africa and while all animals need access to water, few can call the river home. #PBSAmerica #TheDarkSideOfCrocs #Africa #Nature

  • Nature happens but I’m not ashamed to admit I got choked up over the lioness who was mortally injured. The thought of the pain and despair she was in just hurts
  • @hooch1077
    The dark side of hippos was a great documentary. Thanks PBS
  • @The_ZeroLine
    Those little birds going up against monitor lizards are true heroes.
  • Loved how the companion birds of the hippos were flying off and on while they were fighting...one even held its own during the event😂
  • Can you please do a video on the lighter side of crocodiles. I'm very interested in seeing the vibrant, frolicking, fun loving side of crocodiles that the "media" never wants to show us thanks.
  • @eliletts8149
    This was one of the best balanced out documentaries that focused on the lives of two species in detail I have seen in a long time! Thanks for sharing!
  • @Cowboys30
    The lioness part was pretty brutal to watch. Can’t even imagine how terrible a feeling that must be. 😢
  • I enjoyed every minute of this documentary save when the baby hippo was injured. It is amazing what some animals have to put up with, just for the chance to survive. Thank you.
  • Love the way the birds hang on when the hippos are knocking seven bells out of each other lol x
  • @mike.47
    5:42 I don’t know which is more impressive, the hippos fighting or the bird hanging on for dear life.
  • Outside of the title this was one of the best nature documentaries I’ve ever watched. It covered so much more than just 🐊
  • This is the best combination hippo and croc documentary! I love how they show even lions who can't stand up to a hippo! Again though the relative calm between a hippo and a crock is pretty interesting basically tolerating each other and regard each other with curiosity rather than attacking each other. 5 stars on this documentary!

    Great title. Most people are too resigned to the thought that crocs are so cuddly, friendly animals with sweet dispositions and nearly angelic in their nature. Always seen helping wounded animals to cross rivers and taking other for a fun carnival ride with their silly lips, spinning round and round. What fun! Good thing this documentary has come along and shown all these people of the world that they can occasionally have grumpy moments too. Just like the sinister giraffe and the untrustworthy aardvark.
  • What a brilliant documentary. Beautifully filmed and perfectly narrated.
  • @mrkipling2201
    That was brilliant!! The bit where every time the red billed bird tried getting one of the baby crocodiles and the mother crocodile would jump out at it and scare it away!! I bet the bird was thinking “ how is it doing that?? “. “ it knows where I am every single time!! “.

    There is no equal to the dedication given by the PBS network to bring us the best footage of nature. Learning has never been so fun since discovering PBS documentaries.
