Season 20 Episode 8 - Aired 1/6/2006
Giant Snakes. The serpents of our nightmares. Reaching more than 30 feet long and hiding in the swamps, the trees and the basement. Today's giant snakes are as big as they've ever been in their history, and they have the appetites to match. Search For The Supersnake dives into these reptilian marvels of engineering. Some 100 teeth, 300 vertebrae, 600 ribs, and 10,000 muscles work together to form one of nature's most elegant predators. But what are the limits of these enormous serpents? How big can they grow, constrict and consume? National Geographic debunks the internet tall tales while revealing startling truths about the seemingly limitless capacity of these totally tubular predators.

#6 - The Ultimate Crocodile
Season 1 Episode 2 - Aired 10/19/2003
Join National Geographic as they travel to the wilds of Africa to track the Nile crocodile, one of Earth's deadliest and most feared killers. The Nile crocodile is an ancient species-it has haunted Africa's waters since the age of dinosaurs. Yet in over 60 million years, this stealthy creature has changed little. A croc in its prime can reach 18 feet in length or longer, and weigh nearly a ton. It can lunge several feet in the blink of an eye and subdue prey as large as a buffalo. Once nearly decimated by hunters, these mighty giant crocodiles are making an amazing comeback. In a land where lions rule the savannah, Nile crocodiles are now reclaiming the rivers.
