See 6:55. This is surely the first footage of its type ever produced. It is surely unique at this time.
We've fumbled in the past with lists of predators and guesses about the when and how of predation.
The only metric we've had at all is: 'Day One: X newly-hatched chicks; A month later, X remaining chicks.' We've never witnessed a predation.
Toosh Toosh lost four chicks of ten in a week. Limpy Chick lost three of ten in a week.
But the clip of the goanna attacking this male's clutch gives us a lot to think about.
