Since many years I see wildlife films on TV. But a film like this I've never seen before. Great!

@MaddyPower12 thats because they are made to eat flesh , otherwise it will kill them if a wolf or lion eats plants.

[blugularis]

sounds like one!

[MaddyPower12]

P.S. SURELY! That lizard must have been ALIVE when the bird completely swallowed it!!!!!!! How GruUUUesome!!!!!!!!!! YUK!

Even thought the bird tortued that poor lizared by smashing it to pieces, it didn't smash it THAT Hard!!!!!!

[MaddyPower12]

OK, The lizard DID look big before the bird ate it (re: MohammedAsmahiel's comments 7 months ago).

But on another note, I'm a vegetarian, and it always amazes me as to 'how on earth animals themselves' can't be vegetarians ... ie. all of them?
