Crocodiles are making a big comeback in the warm effluent waters around the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant, near Homestead, Florida. Could be a cottage industry in organic birth control.
When I was a kid we used to hike/canoe/camp all over the Glades and Big Cypress. Used swim in the canals and lakes, and scavenge the mangrove shores of the Bay in knee deep water and bushwhack back to the road.
Back then there were no crocodiles, Mega pythons, Monitor and Tegu lizards, lionfish and the gators were only a few years out of being and endangered species and were scared of humans.
You couldn’t pay me to do those same things again today.
Those better be alligators. Crocodiles would be illegal aliens.
