Croc farm












Today was a trip to the Samut Prakarn Crocodile Farm. Here they boast the largest living croc in the world at 1.114 tonnes and 6M in length. They also have over 100,000 living crocs which is the most in the world. After feeding some rather large crocs it was time for my first croc show where the entertainers preformed tricks such as putting their hands, heads and also retrieving the tips they received from the crowd from the crocs mouth. One even opened the throat of the croc and reached the length of his arm inside the croc. Its enough to turn the stomach with over 6,000 psi of clamping pressure looming around the performer. After the show I headed around the rest of the zoo they have snakes, tigers, hippos and a few other animals. I managed to get some good snaps of the elephants too. We stopped for lunch which we had croc kebabs, hamburgers, croc-meat with garlic and AL had croc-meat fried rice, Classic.

After the farm we took a tickey tour around Samut Prakarn as AL had not been to this part of his city. Going past the museum which has the 3 headed elephant on top. We were killing time before his interview for his MBA in Logistics.
