A Crocodile attacked and caught one Monitor Lizard at Sajnekhali of Sundarban, west Bengal. However, after tireless efforts the Monitor Lizard could survive at last.
In a dramatic wildlife encounter filmed in the Sajnekhali region of the Sundarbans, West Bengal, a crocodile was seen ambushing a monitor lizard near the edge of a muddy water body. The crocodile, partially submerged, clamped its powerful jaws around the lizard’s body as the reptile struggled to escape. The monitor lizard, known for its agility and strength, clawed desperately at tree roots and rocks, attempting to pull itself free from the predator’s grip. The scene unfolded in a natural wetland habitat, where such predator-prey interactions are rare but not unheard of.
Despite the odds, the monitor lizard managed to survive after a prolonged and exhausting struggle. Its escape was a testament to the resilience and survival instincts of these reptiles, which are often underestimated in the wild. The video, captured by local observers and shared online, has drawn attention to the raw and unpredictable nature of life in the Sundarbans—a region where survival often hinges on strength, timing, and sheer will.
