There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Crocodile, the killler of water

Just arrived with my wife from crocodile safari in Costa Rica, Palo Verde national park. We took a boat on the local river. For couple of hours saw at least 25-30 American crocodiles with average size 1,5-2 meters, most of them were in the water and 5-6 on land. When crocodiles are in the water they sink when boat approach about 20-30 meters to them but if they are beaching you can approach even 4 to 6 m before they become really nervous. Here we post on youtube short 12 seconds amateur video with crocodile only 3 meters from our boat:





Unfortunately I dont have computer skills to post any images.
In wikipedia curiously is written that despite Cuban crocodile is smaller than American its actually more agressive: "in areas where the two species coexist, the smaller but more aggressive Cuban crocodile is behaviorally dominant over the larger American crocodile".
