Wow. I find so few people who post shots from zoos actually bother to provide or even remember the name of the species they've photographed.

Nice shot an good on ya' with the species identification!

And Nile Crocodiles are indeed cool animals. Damn dangerous too if you piss them off... Or if they'r hungry.

Oh yes, they're pretty bad. Salties are worse.

Good shot. I looks cute in a morbid way with it's eye closed. No reason to go up to it and pet it, though. XD

Nope, lol. You don't wanna smile at it either.

No, it's the name of a song. "Never Smile at a Crocodile"

There's also an expression called crocodile tears.

Haha, I've never heard of that. You first made me picture an image of a random tourist smiling then being attacked. I have heard of crocodile tears, though.

Yup. Crocs are said to feign crying to trick their prey.....

Try looking up the Saltwater Crocodile. THAT will make your head spin

Kyun-Kyun In reply to The-blue-wolf [2010-04-04 17:18:53 +0000 UTC]

Oh yes. They kill people too. There was a story about this black saltie that was killing people, but the Aborigines won't let anyone do anything because the black croc was a sacred symbol for them.
