When I woke up this morning, I never thought I will see all I saw today. I've seen quiet a lot on screen but little do I know that I will ever come so close to a python, crocodile and similar dangerous animals. I never knew I will touch a lioness or a dolphin in my life as well. But today I think the story had change and now I can say I have seen the longest specie of snakes on earth, the second fastest creature on land, the king of the beast himself, the creature older than any human being on earth, that's the giant tortoise of 176 years old....
Pictures here are real taken by me (not good at photography though so don't mind if it is not 100%) however for blurry ones, I've get other substitute alongside the real ones.
O yeah, welcome to the crocodile section
Let's start with the Crocodile. I saw three crocodiles in a secured pond. All my life, I've imagined how a crocodile looks. Not actually among the lucky ones who have seen this flesh eating beast so it was indeed a breath taking site. They were rather calm and patient that I got so close to take a nice shot crumble however by my amateurish skill in photography. The zoologist taking us round provided us with some facts that still keep ringing in my head. The fact that crocodiles don't have tongues and swallow every of their diet including big animals is one thing then another is that he said it can swallow an human being... Before we left that scene, the crocodile did something to remind us of its deadly instincts by snorting so aggressively at us. That was fearful as people took to their heels almost immediately. I was the only one that kept calm as a man so I just stood there and was just watching what's wrong with this little thing now... Guess you didn't believed that. If not that the zoologist stopped me, nobody would have actually out ran me really
