  6. "A video of six otters facing off against a crocodile many times their size in the waters of the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve caught the attention of Facebook users on March 22.
    […]
    Despite its superior size, the crocodile eventually retreats, slowly backing away from the group and disappearing into the murky waters, leaving the victorious semi-aquatic animals free to roam the area."

  9. "...Dean Nyirenda was returning from a fishing trip with two friends on Wednesday when they bumped into the elephants. They ran away, with Nyirenda diving into a stream near the Luangwa River.

    "That is when he was attacked by a crocodile by biting his right thigh," local police chief Robertson Mweemba told journalists. ..."

  14. #Conservation: 50 rare #crocodiles released in #Cambodia's tropical Cardamom Mountains discoverwildlife.com/animal-fa

    "Cambodian #conservationists have released 50 captive-bred juvenile #SiameseCrocodiles at a remote site in Cambodia as part of an ongoing programme to save the species from #extinction... The expedition, which took researchers deep into the #CardamomMountains in the south-west of the country, is the biggest release of captive-bred Siamese crocodiles to date."

  15. OMG the crocodile I saw is actually considered Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve's "resident crocodile", imaginatively named "Tail-less" because it doesn't have a tail! That explains a lot!

  16. CW: Crocodiles

    I also saw this sign for the first time. I had been to the Woodlands before, and people had mentioned that there were crocodiles there, just as I was ankle-deep in the water because it had *rained*, but now I actually saw this sign.

    As a Dutchie, I always believe that other cultures are way too "betuttelend" with their warnings for everything, so naturally, I thought "Aw. It's Singapore. How bad can it possibly be!?"

    That naiveté only lasted for about 15 minutes, after which I went "yo wtf!?"

  17. To complete the Thorsborne trail you have to ignore a crocodile warning while crossing a wide, waist deep river. Second picture shows my wife finishing off the biggest crossing. All good fun 😅#crocodiles #straya #FNQ

  18. Despite the quality of their produce, Crocodiles don’t actually wear shoes or belts, or carry handbags.

  19. they say
    down under in Australia
    crocodiles
    are bringin' home the bacon
    puttin' the brakes
    on the pig population

    why can't we have that
    in America?
    why can't alligators
    eat the pigs?
    why can't alligators
    take care of
    35-50 feral hogs
    roamin' in your
    neighborhood

    why can't alligators
    eat the pigs?

  21. A flying fox's long wingspan makes walking on the ground very difficult, so to drink, they dip and soak their bellies in water. But while the bats are looking for a drink, the river crocodiles are looking for food.

  22. Tiny #tyrannosaurs used the buddy system: Fossil trackways may show tyrannosaur tykes teaming up scientificamerican.com/article by Riley Black

    A busy time at the beach: multiple examples of gregarious #DinosaurBehaviour inferred from a set of trackways from the Late #Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada cdnsciencepub.com/doi/abs/10.1

    The newfound tracks hint that #hatchlings formed groups after leaving the nest, similar to some herbivorous #dinosaurs—as well as living #crocodiles and large ground #birds.

  23. I'm rather intrigued by this photograph of the Freeport, #LongIsland, Smith family. c. 1908. It's held in the #Hofstra University Special Collections.

    Several of my students have used the later letters of Marjorie Smith (bottom right) to write research papers. But none used this picture, so the #crocodiles remain a mystery...
