Here is an original and exciting new look at the fascinating world of reptiles. Stunning real-life photographs of snakes, crocodiles, lizards and turtles offer a unique "eyewitness" view of some of the world's most curious living creatures, their intriguing characteristics and unusual behavior.

Discovery School - Jeff Corwin Experience: Reptiles in the U.S. and South America
Travel across the United States and to South America to view some of Jeff's favorite cold-blooded air-breathing vertebrates. The reptiles you'll see include rattlesnakes, cottonmouth snakes, white alligators, crocodiles, matamatas, green anacondas, bushmasters, and ridleys.
"Crocodiles" is an examination of the crocodile and its history which stretches back over 200 million years, linking the present day with the vanished age of dinosaurs. A succession of fossil forms traces the descent of modern crocodiles back almost to the beginning of the dinosaur age and demonstrates extinct groups that became, at one extreme, fully aquatic, converting their limbs into paddles (the metriorhynchids), or, at the other extreme, almost totally terrestrial, apparently seeking their prey entirely on land (the sebecids).
