Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

Episode of Series “The World about us”.
A comprehensive treatment of saltwater and freshwater crocodiles. A ‘non-specialist’ film, it is nevertheless scientifically accurate, and takes a balanced view of this little understood and seldom loved reptile, which is now in danger of extinction. Narrated by Hugh Falkus. Suitable for upper primary and lower secondary levels.
