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 in it`s natural eco-system, can still fall victim to implemented team work strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and survival of the fittest pack mentality bred into the canines over the last several hundreds of years by natural selection.
* Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the crocodile preventing it from breathing, while the remainder of the pack prevents the beast from rolling.
