NakihunterWow! amazing stuff.
About 25 years ago, I saw an incident in India where a 1 foot long "muggar" crocodile fell to the ground from the sky! It was a baby that was dropped by a crow while another bird was trying top steal it. It was alive and not very hurt. so my friend on the coffee estate kept it in a big tank. these animals get to about 15 feet long as full grown adults. they are a bit smaller than the african species.

stubbleduck47Notice the bird appears to have the croc's mouth secured with one talon. Wonder if that's learned behavior or a lucky grab?
