Without water, the animals cannot survive in hot Africa. Waterholes, watercourses, and waterfalls are like oases where they can quench their thirst after a long migration. The water, however, also represents great danger for them.
Crocodiles are often just waiting for an animal to come close enough to snatch. Sometimes the reptiles also hide in the reeds that grow on the banks. They grow between one to four metres high and protect the banks during floods with their deep roots.
