The crocodiles in this country are awesome! You have 2 kind off Crocodiles here. 1 is the “fresh water” and the other is the “salty’s”. The first ones are small ones, and have small long mouth, the other ones are much larger and have wider mouth. The first ones are river crocodiles and the other is a saltwater (sea) crocodile, witch also comes far up the rivers. I have seen my first live crocodile from the helicopter ( a couple off fresh water ones) and just yesterday I have seen my first “salty” in the nearby river. It was a very large one and it was swimming with a large (unknown) dead animal in his beak/mouth. I have never seen such a big crocodile a live in the wild. I stopped the car and ran back along the river to get closer and make a picture, but these animals are really afraid for humans. Soon if he saw me he released his carcass and dived under. Sometimes peaking up to keep an eye on me and his carcass. But unfortunately, I have now zoom lens on my camera and was not able to make a proper picture. It must have been at least
Days before that, we needed crocodiles in the series, so the girls could do some thing with it on frame. So our local animal handler went out to catch some, and I did join him to have a look. (these where the “fresh water” ones) So, he did catch one (in his boat) and then he showed me the one and moved close to me. The crocodile did not like my camera and took a bite and did get hold off my camera and did not wanted to let go any more. Neither did I and I did hold the other end off the camera. The tooth of the crocodile where flying around, cause I have a metal camera. And so I took an other picture while the crocodile was holding my camera. (a bit out off focus, but did not have time to adjust camera settings, lol)
Well these are the crocodile experiences till now.
fresh water crocodile in a boat, there skin feels really nice and soft.
