fotografr Posted October 7, 2014 Share #2 Posted October 7, 2014 We actually swam with them. [ATTACH]461268[/ATTACH] You WHAT?!?!?! From the other side of the river, I hope. Lovely shot. Were you also swimming with your V Lux, or was this taken from shore? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmradman Posted October 7, 2014 Share #5 Posted October 7, 2014 Stuart, brave thing to swim with them even if they happen to be hatchlings and mom is nowhere to be seen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share #6 Posted October 8, 2014 K-H, Gerhard, Tony, Mladen, Brent & Paul - Thank you. Brent - Thank you. I'm not sure whether I was in a canoe or a boat when I shot this. Caiman are crocodilians most closely related to American alligators. The largest ones we saw were about two meters long, as was this one, and they primarily eat fish. The only danger we were in swimming in that river was from fresh water sting rays which one can avoid by making a fuss as one stepped near the river bed.
