Re: River Nile crocodile

To cheer you up here are some crocs in happier circumstances.

First a saltie in Kakadu Yellow Waters National Park, NT



Now a couple of freshwater crocs, the first in the creek next to my campsite at Timber Creek, NT



...and one on an island in Lake Argyle, you can swim in Lake Argyle - no salties.



Salt Water crocs are big and deadly, Freshwater crocs are harmless (as long as you don't annoy them).

Re: River Nile crocodile

Crocodiles don’t really have any enemies apart from man and other crocodiles .Otherwise their life could be quite idyllic only one decision to make a day .
Am I hungry or shall I just carry on basking in the sun ?

Re: River Nile crocodile

Well if you believe the so called experts, apparently these crocodiles can grow up to 15 feet.

But I've never seen one with more than four
