Leopard and Baboon

Her name is Legadema (lah-heh-deem-uh)—Setswana for "light from the sky"—and she has illuminated documentary filmmakers Beverly and Dereck Joubert's understanding of how a leopard learns and survives in the wild. Since discovering her at eight days old—and for three years following—they tracked her movements in Botswana's Okavango Delta. Watch her in these scenes from the Joubert's film Eye of the Leopard.

Friendly Crocodile


A Costa Rican man has made an unlikely friend in a 5 metre, 450 kilogram crocodile. Gilberto Graham has seemingly domesticated the massive crocodile, starting his own show in the Costa Rican city of Limon.

In the show Graham canvorts with the crocodile in the water and gives commands that the animal follows. When asked if he doesn't fear attack, Graham said that he trusts the animal. "I've tried it many different times. I've been with the animal and tested him to see if he would betray me. He may get a little mean when there are a lot of people watching and he feels pressure."

Graham found the reptile wounded by a bullet five years ago after it had been shot by a farmer who wanted to keep it from eating his cattle. Graham claimed that he cured and fed the crocodile. Little by little they got to know each other and Graham gained the animal's confidence.

Too much to handle


An Aligator? Too much for a Python to handle October 6, 2005 —Unfortunately for a 13-foot (4-meter) Burmese python in Florida's Everglades National Park, eating the enemy seems to have caused the voracious reptile to bust a gut—literally.

Wildlife researchers with the South Florida Natural Resources Center found the dead python last week after it apparently tried to digest a 6-foot-long (2-meter-long) American alligator. The mostly intact dead gator was found sticking out of a hole in the midsection of the python, and wads of gator skin were found in the snake's gastrointestinal tract.

The gruesome discovery suggests that the python's feisty last meal might have been too much for it to handle. -- NG
