Warning: Read the tekst before looking at the picture, THIS IS NOT FOR THE
FAINT HEARTED !!!
At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a
certain justice manifested within that cruelty. The crocodile, one of the
oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "apex predator", can
still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to
the tight knit social structure and "survival of the pack mentality" bred
into the canines.. See the remarkable photograph attached, courtesy of
Nature
Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the croc' preventing
it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from
thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the croc'. Not for
the squeamish!
