Crocodile Farm

 I read about the review in tripadvisor regarding this place and most of the ang mo dislike it here. Mostly about animal abuse

 My dad say he wanna have a look at the legendary human head in the crocodile mouth performance.

 But I didn't know they prepare baby croc and teenage croc for visitor to hold.........I can only describe the touch is soft and cold under the belly.
I may be smiling at the camera but it is quite "geli" to hold them.
The baby croc pee pee in my hand~~~ -.-"

Fishing for crocodiles 

 and finally.......live show. Even thought there were only us.....the show must go on
The performer start off with a short prayer

 and start to do his job........

 The show is not recommended for the faint-hearted

The minuted he put in any parts of his limb, my heart stop for a second

and when he took out his limb, the crocodile went "cufff" snap it's mouth........it was so so close to got his head chop off by the reptile.

After the show, my dad get to talk with the performer for a while asking how long have he been doing this and the frequencies of show daily.
The answer was he has been training with the crocodile for almost 30 years. As for the show, as long as there are visitor, he will put on the show even if there were only 1 viewer.

Personally I solute him for the path he choose. He could have find other job to do, but he stick with it for over 30 years......
