Feared and Revered: Crocodiles Myths and Legends Across Cultures

This documentary explores the crocodile, a predator that has ruled the earth's waters for over two hundred million years and inspired both awe and dread. It travels through the cultures that revered these reptiles, from the crocodile god Sobek in ancient Egypt to sacred traditions in West Africa. Blending natural history with myth, it reveals why the animal is at once feared and worshipped. Fascinating and richly filmed, it is a compelling portrait of a living legend.
