The owl's talons, though not as devastating in face to face combat, are unmatched when employed with stealth to take down their prey.

Maasai Mara - The Big Hunt | Wildlife Documentary When food supply in the Serengeti dwindles, the Maasai Mara is a paradise for predators. As the black wildebeests, gazelles, zebras and antelopes make their yearly trip from the south of the Serengeti to the north, nature’s best laid trap, the Mara River in Kenya is waiting ahead. Captivating shots filmed underwater show how crocodiles prepare for the Big Hunt while other predators lurk on the banks awaiting their bounty. The biggest problems for the migratory animals are the Mara and the Tarek River, where they have to put their lives at risk to get to the other side. A great number of them die as they jump into the river and break their legs, while others are carried away by the drift or drown. Those who are not victims of the river itself risk falling prey to the crocodiles. We entered this uncharted territory, the crocodile domain by heading under water. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary is dedicated to bring high-class documentaries to you on the original video platform for

Animal Armory - Episode 6: Chemical Warfare | Animal Documentary Within the animal armory, multiple applications of ejection and odour have more than proven their worth. Throughout the ocean the cuttlefish evades its enemies by disappearing behind an ejection of ink. Combining ejection and odor, the skunk can fire its sickening stink with practiced precision. More hunter than scavenger, the hyena employs odour as a means of communication in its complex society. The Musk ox bull uses its heady aroma to mark trails and compete for mates. The tasmanian devil is well known for its foul odor but is now understood to utilize smell in its secretive eco-systems. More aggressive than it appears, the male koala intimidates rivals by marking its territories with secretions from its chest. Both ejection and odor are used to devastating effect by the innovative bolas spider. Finally, the ancient millipede deters and injures would-be predators with a noxious discharge.

Animal Armory - Episode 5: Spits & Stings | Animal Documentary For many species in the animal kingdom, spitting and stinging is a vital tool for self-defense and in the pursuit of prey. Animal Armory takes a closer look at the mighty instruments of destruction and the animals that wield them with absolute precision. In Arctic waters, the walrus depends on its ability to spit in order to feed. The cobra projects its venomous saliva to blind its predators. Spitting provides the jawfish with a home – and a means to defend it. Putting their lives on the line, bees will use stings to attack any threat to their colony. Jellyfish trawl their stingers through the world’s oceans to subdue prey and ward off predators. The echidna is constantly protected by their densely packed, needle-like armor of spines. The Stingray’s powerful, barbed tail and potent venom is the stuff of legends, and the carnivorous centipede is granted access to a wide range of prey thanks to its paralyzing sting.
