    Komodo dragons’ method of hunting is scary and painful… Biting a prey and chasing it until it falls… 😳
    Thank you for sharing this nice video!!👍✨

      "Chasing"? More like stalking. Sometimes it takes 5 - 7 days for the prey to succumb to the bite. Worst way of dying. Imagine something just following around for days waiting for u to die so it can eat u. Nature is brutal.

    That last clip with the snake dragging it’s prey. Maybe I’ve heard it but I’ve never seen it. That was disturbing to say the least. Even watched snakes feed as pets but never in 30 years have I seen a snake drag anything.

    Excuse me, I have been a fan of most Smithsonian Channel Documentaries for at least a decade. I have one of them on DVD. But only 1 called "Titanoboa: The Monster Snake". There are some other interesting Documentaries on Modern & Prehistoric Animals that interest me, but I don't think they're released on DVDS in America yet. Except for 1 that's part PBS called "When Whales Walked". The others that have yet to be released & added to my Region 1 or Region Free DVD Collection are these I have in mind below.
    "The Tales of Zambia"
    "The Predator Coast"
    "Into The Wild India: Land of the Secret Rhino"
    "Animals Decoded"
    "Lizards: Predator & Prey"
    "Castro's Secret Reef"
    "Into The Wild New Zealand"
    "Into The Wild Columbia"
    "The Secret World of Animal Sleep: Dozing Dolphins"
    "Animals At Play"
    “The Incredible Animal Kingdom”
    “Cave Crocs of Gabon” 2:46 Such as this clip here for example.
    “Wild Inside the National Zoo: How to Train a Dragon”
    “Wild Inside the National Zoo: Reptile Rejuvenation”
    Those are what I can think of that have yet to be released on DVD in America. Especially featuring some of my favorite animals. 10:46 Especially this & 0:24 & 9:30 This with the Komodo Dragons. 15:52 As for that “Wild Columbia” feature program, I hope there’s Orinoco Crocodiles on that. I saw a few made an appearance in & on “Titanoboa: The Monster Snake” before the Giant Crocodile Acherontisuchus showed up & attacked Titanoboa. See that all 14 of those known Documentaries are released on DVD in America for some of us fans. That’s all I have to say. Oh & have a Merry Christmas.

    Be honest at 28:20 when the crocodile to the food away from the vouchers did you think of that bit in jungle book were the birds say "what do you want to do" I don't know what do you want to do. "Don't start that again"

    Deceptive editing. I watched the first 3. the komodo and deer attack doesn't really happen and neither does the copperhead snake and opossum confrontation. Stopped watching there and thumbs downed.
