That's my head, but I'm in no danger. This photo was taken from a
small tour boat at a Crocodile Farm where they farm crocs for meat and
hide, plus they have a nice sanctuary for born-in-the-wild crocs and
other animals. They have hung a chicken over the side of the boat
to get the croc to jump for the food. Salt-water crocodiles are
the largest crocs in the world. They have documented them at 23'
long and claims are that there are larger. They are unusual in
that they can live in salt water but prefer to make their homes in
freshwater creeks where they empty into the ocean. Then they can
go back and forth. Fortunately or unfortunately, the Port
Hinchinbrook area where we live is FULL of creeks emptying into the
ocean and has the highest concentration of crocs on the east coast.
We do see them occasionally. |
