Crocolandia, Cebu, Philippines

[pentaxpete]

Went on another visit to 'Crocolandia' near Talisay, CEBU, Philippines -- been several times before. This time the talking Mynah Bird 'MARK' had been stolen but they have a replacement and he says his name is 'ROY' -- Sister-in-law paid 150 Pesos for keeper to feed one on the large Crocs. The VERY Large on 'Lapu Lapu' is still there, 62 years old but on a diet as his weight will crush his lungs.
One of the PYTHONS under glass with flash -- you can have a snake around your neck but we didn't indulge this visit.

That's a cracking Retic
And no, you don't want one of those around you anywhere, they are the largest ( up to 10m) and most aggressive of all the pythons

I really like the last one - the juxtaposition of the chap in the background "in" the croc's mouth is great.
