Face to Face: living with crocodiles
The crocodile fascinates us as much as it frightens us. All over the world, their lightning attacks affect domestic animals, and sometimes even humans. In Mexico, increasing urbanization is forcing people to live ever closer to these large predators, in dangerous proximity. Yet accidents here are extremely rare. How do locals and tourists manage to coexist with these powerful reptiles? And what if we've got them all wrong?
From the sidewalks of Cancùn to the cenotes surrounded by the Mayan jungle, photographer Rodolphe Guignard immerses himself in the world of crocodiles. Working alongside scientists and enthusiasts, he will get up close and personal with these animals as he has never seen them before. Peaceful and curious, these giants offer encounters as rare as they are unforgettable. A unique face-to-face encounter that will forever change the way we look at these animals, whose ancestors were already roaming the Earth at the time of the dinosaurs.
