lizard steals crocodile eggs and the
outcome for the thief
[Music]
crocodiles are carnivores that prefer
aquatic environments
they can also live on land
however
in the breeding season they will come
ashore to lay eggs in the sand piles
after laying the eggs the crocodiles
will immediately fill up the sand into
tall piles and lie next to that to
protect the eggs
however crocodiles are not always able
to stay near their nest to protect they
also have to go looking for food
this creates an opportunity for stealthy
thieves to come and the whole nest of
eggs will be in danger lizards are among
the first to visit when the mother
crocodile leaves their nest
a crocodile was digging in the sand
it looked like it was about to lay eggs
the mother crocodile is kicking her feet
towards the hole she dug to keep her
eggs safe
after laying the eggs the crocodile
moves out a short distance to bask in
the sun but close enough to keep an eye
on its eggs
as you can see right after the mother
crocodile crawled to the side nearby a
lizard rushed into the frame sneaking
from behind the crocodile and trying to
sneak closer and closer to steal the
eggs
however the mother crocodile promptly
discovered and chased the lizard away
after chasing the first lizard from the
eggs
a second one appeared again with the
same goal of stealing the crocodile's
eggs the second one appeared again with
the same goal of stealing the eggs
the mother crocodile tried to drive the
lizard away for a while but then the
poachers prevailed and manage to steal
an egg
when they have one they obviously know
the vulnerability of their prey so they
can't easily give up
the stubborn stalkers have their chance
for their next meal
when the mother crocodile is not around
they quickly dig into the nest to find
those greasy eggs
sneaking in the sand the two reptiles
are quickly trying to steal a few more
crocodile eggs before the predator
returns
but there was a conflict when finding
the egg the two lizards began to compete
with each other to try to grab more eggs
than the other
they moved from partnership to enemies
and start chasing each other
the dominant lizard in an attempt to
retrieve more eggs chase the second
across a small stream
it seems like after repeatedly stealing
eggs the lizards have become more and
more daring
it defies the danger trying to find more
food right in front of the owner the
little lizard tries to dig for eggs in
front of the mother crocodile perhaps
because they have some so passionate
about eggs they risk the danger of being
eaten themselves lizards love all types
of eggs and they're not limited to bird
eggs
in the wild lizards eat whatever eggs
they can get their mouth on they eat
turtle eggs crocodile eggs and snake
eggs
finally the mother crocodile stood up to
affirm her supremacy to chase the
fearless thief out of her area
in a distant southeastern united states
a lizard is stealing the eggs of an
alligator mississippianis
after many days of being watched by the
lizards a hatchling was born
but unfortunately the mother crocodile
was not here and a lizard was eating the
unhatched eggs
eggs are one of liz's favorite foods
because they are easily accessible and
don't take much effort to obtain
after eating all of the eggs it also
chased after the hatchling
what do you think about this daring
theft of lizards and whether they are a
danger that brings crocodiles close to
extinction please leave a comment below
