EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by M. Watson, we witness the incredible bravery and dedication of an Orinoco crocodile female as she leaps out of the water to protect her precious nest on a riverbank in Ilanos, Venezuela. With her mouth wide open and splashing water all around, she sends a clear message: "Don't mess with my babies!". This single mother showcases both power and grace as she defies gravity, showcasing her remarkable jumping skills. The spray from the river adds an extra touch of drama to this already action-packed moment. The dangerous nature of these reptiles is evident in this snapshot - their strength and agility are truly awe-inspiring. It's no wonder they have survived for millions of years! As we admire this breathtaking display of maternal instinct, it reminds us that love knows no bounds in the animal kingdom too. This brave crocodile teaches us about the importance of protection and defense when it comes to our loved ones. So next time you're feeling overwhelmed or need some inspiration, just take a glance at this extraordinary print – a reminder that even in the wild world out there, mothers will always go above and beyond for their little ones!
