Feeding time

One of the more entertaining features in Gatorama, was the feeding of the crocs & gators. One of the groundskeepers would make commentary and then feed them pieces of what looked like chicken.

Hehehehe.

Chomp. This was a gator btw. The reason why the Everglades hosts both species is that it's the northermost region where crocs live, and therefore the Florida crocs are quite small, so they don't become too dominant and bossy towards the gators.

This huge croc was called Herman, and he was the "artist" among them. Very photogenic.
