A cute little documentary.
I do have a problem with the part where the croc "catches" the nest raiding nile monitor, it looks pretty faked and the monitor lizard that the croc has in its jaws looks like it was dead already and they just edited a shot of them tossing a dead lizard at the croc.

A neat little account of what a komodo dragon can do to a wild boar in a struggle and instantaneously: source→ : Lizards Windows to the Evolution of Diversity Eric P. Pianka & Laurie J. VittWhat to make from that; • V. komodoensis is fully capable of killing large prey quickly and in actual fights (or pursuits, as seen in this video→), not just by "long term" effects of envenomation and blood loss. • it can and does bite the belly of prey, with fatal consequences • once more, this is a very impressive demonstration of the potency of its bite also in the mere mechanical sense btw Auffenberg 1981 also states that oras sometimes kill deer by biting the lumbar area, or by biting the throat. What I would give to see a video of such an attack!

Its more of a disclaimer, people tend to get a little raw about the big bad scaley lizard choking the life from the itty bitty kitty.
Did you read Taipan's crap? I also loved when he tried to make the feral cats look like they are out there killing even large monitors when in reality even the largest rosenberg's monitors are smaller than most run of the mill cats.
