Ben Cropp S Crocodile Island

Nuie is an uplifted coral island, a tiny speck in the middle of the South pacific. It is on the migratory path of the great Humpback Whales. In the crystal water these giants rise up to breathe beside the divers, some with new born calves. The Rocky island is home to a unique species of venomous sea snakes, that come ashore to lay their eggs. They have never bitten an islander, yet, and become part of their lore. In Snake Gully Ben Cropp meets these snakes in their hundreds, they sleep en masse in every crevice, and the traffic is like pitt street when they surface for air every half hour. When you swim at Nuie, you swim with snakes.

On a remote beach at the tip of Australia, a dozen crocodiles sit at the beach edge at night waiting for the hatching flatback turtles to scamper down to the water and into their snapping jaws. This amazing predation has never been filmed before, and at great risk Ben Cropp and his son Dean closely approach the feeding crocs in the dark of night with infra red lights the crocs can't see. They also witness a large tiger shark grabbing an adult turtle and shake it like a rag doll, then tear it apart bite by bite. On a nearby sand cay they witness another unique predation of black tip whaler sharks grabbing tern chicks having a swim. Crocodile Island is the place where predator meets prey in amazing action.
