Sorry about your friends injury but WoW thats a beautiful croc Cool


My friend is fine, has a good laugh about it all now although if you see the look of fear in some of the photos I took you would be creasing up (he would terrified of needles NOT the croc bite Laughing )

Yep the caiman was a great animal, unfortunately it died in a very bad fire that destroyed the entire premesies.

Man that is an awefull shame about the fire. Your friend must be well gutted Sad

On another note my work colleague lost 3 of his fingers in a machine accident in our woodwork-shop on monday.
For some reason it made me think about what could happen to me if I was ever biten by one of my charges and I lost digits fom necrosis.
Not a very nice thought........now I'm even more careful.

Eeek! That looks bad! I think a lot of people underestimate the power of these animals to do real damage. Glad your friend was OK, though.

Our Caimans at work are pretty docile but having seen what they can do to a broom handle, (and now a hand) I tend to be pretty wary of them Smile
