EPISODE 4 — THE CROCODILE'S ELEMENT (LOCOMOTION)

In this episode of Corwin's Quest, Jeff explores how animals move from point A to point B. His main quest is to go scuba diving with a giant saltwater crocodile and observe its swimming technique. However, this 14-foot reptile has other things on its mind besides showing off for Jeff — mainly, having our beloved host for dinner.

Along the way, Jeff visits a galloping freshwater crocodile in northern Australia, then tries to coax a hungry saltie to leap for its dinner.

But that's not all. In a series of side quests, Jeff "hangs" with a troop of swinging orangutans, jumps for kangaroos and sees how sidewinders move through sand.
