michali Posted December 17, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 17, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) M8 & TRI-ELMAR @ 35mm Canoeing down the river I found this baby crocodile sunning itself in the early morning light. Length about 15cm or 6in. If it survives it could end up like some of its bigger relatives, the 4m or 12ft long monsters that hang out in and around the river. Thanks for viewing.

psquared Posted December 18, 2008 Share #4 Posted December 18, 2008 Excellent, Mike. Are these babies on their own by this age? I would have been too much of a chicken to get this close with the mother hanging around nearby. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

michali Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted December 19, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Martin, Al, Virgil & Stuart- Thank you for your comments! Excellent, Mike. Are these babies on their own by this age? I would have been too much of a chicken to get this close with the mother hanging around nearby. Peter Peter- Thank you. Yes they practically are on their own, however mom hangs around not too far away. In fact here she is. Taken from a canoe with M8 & 135mm Telyt.
