    When I lived in Brunei as a kid, I'd often see Proboscis Monkeys while on safari through the mangroves, but the funnier story comes from when I visited a zoo in Malaysia. Essentially, i brought a toy jaguar with me as I wandered around the place, and when I got to the Proboscis Monkey enclosure and propped myself up on the viewing platform, they caught sight of the jaguar and quite literally went ape shit, the males roaring and flopping their red chillies towards the jaguars direction. In hindsight, probably wasn't that funny for them, but its hard to take them seriously when they were doing that.

    Fun fact: In the Polish internet the proboscis monkey is used as a symbol of middle-aged lower working class men. I mean, just look at those monkeys, it's obvious their only hobbies are watching soccer games from the 70s (when the national team was still quite good), drinking cheap beer and not-washing their brand new German cars (of the 1992 vintage), and their greatest enemy is the neighbour who recently bought himself a 1993 Opel Astra (he must have been stealing from his work place, no way he'd be able to afford such a factory-fresh car otherwise!).

All crocodilians are interesting (and totally birds), but there are only 2 species of alligators so it would possibly be a better scope for a 10 min video.
