This is not the first time that a crocodile has been helpful. Few days back, a video showing a brave Crane that risks its life by hitching a ride on the back of a crocodile went viral. The crane doesn’t even seem to be fazed by its potentially dangerous transportation. While keeping it cool, the crane stands on the reptile's tail and maintains its stance as the crocodile swims in the water. In the video, one can see the ‘unusual pair’ moving along. The bird can also be seen looking around and repositioning its head. Two other crocodiles can also be spotted swimming closely, however, the Crane doesn’t react to them and keeps on balancing.
