Live your life for a reason and don't worry be happy
if you don't know where you are going then any road will do!!
crocodile or BUA-AYA in visayan is other term in the PHILIPPINES
A place for everything, everything in its place.
Seen a few biggies around,thats a decent specimen,oddest crocs I have seen in the wild are gharials
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
I watched a nice report of this on TFC (TV patrol I think)
It seemed someone has the idea to keep it as a tourist attraction in a nature park.
I have no idea how on earth they will ever afford to feed this huge specimen.
I just hope it manages to survive.
Seems they already caused it to vomit somehow, but there was no trace of human remains or of several water buffaloes also reported missing by locals.
Could be a few more around.
I thought with a title like that it would get more than 71 views.
I wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of that one.
The croc farm in Puerto Princesa is well worth a visit if anyone is in the area, they even let you hold a 3 or 4 foot 5 year old croc - mouth taped up of course
There's also a Crocodile Park in Davao.
Just giving a well deserved plug for my son-in-law who is tourism manager for Philip S Dizon (PSD Group of Companies).

He actually appeared in the TV program Trip Na Trip when they visited a number of attractions in and around Davao
We're lucky to have him organise loads of trip for us, at special prices too ( I like that ).
I remember visiting Komodo when you were allowed to buy a live goat for the multitudinous dragons that emerged from the scrub as you walked over attracted by the bleating of your purchase,it didnt last long,I also met a lady with serious scarring on her thigh when a dragon tried to take her from the hut.tourist attraction - reminds me of king kong
