Default Crocodiles

I've been on a walking safari where we were lucky enough to find a nest of crocodile eggs in the sandbank. The ranger dug one out to show us but we kept a careful eye on the river because both the parents protect the eggs and were somewhere in the area. He replaced it carefully and we left before the mother came back. A nest normally consists of between 20 to 90 eggs and they are buried in the sand to be incubated by the sun. The incubation temperature will determine the gender of the young.

Aww awesome. Must have been wicked to see it happening in the wild.

Also - why do some people on here have to be so smarmy and negative?
