The Crocodile Park – by Nina

After we went to the cat park we drove to St Lucia, but we got there early so we decided to have a look around.  We found a crocodile park and the lady at reception told us that it was feeding time in a couple of hours.  So we went off to our camp-site and put up our tents.  We returned to the crocodile park at feeding time.

First they fed the big old crocs.  The men went into the enclosure and threw whole, unplucked chickens at them, then the crocs ate the chickens whole.  It was quite amazing.

In the water they are almost invisible!

... but then a big one lunges out of the pool to grab a chook!

Then they fed the juveniles.  They went to the wall and threw plucked chickens and large cubes of beef into their pool and the crocs went wild over it.  They climbed over each other in their haste to get at it.   It was amazing.

juvenile feeding frenzy

... its mine. its mine!
