Crocodile farm!

Et besøkt til et ” Crocodile farm” på Filippinene. Innlegget er fra min engelske bloggen: Joysnotepad.blogspot.com. Dette er fra en del år tilbake.

 

 

The farm is found near the heart of Puerto Princesa City, about 20 to 30 minutes away by tricycle or minicab. Apart from its conservation role, the farm operates commercially by breeding and raising crocodiles, and eventually harvesting them for their meat and skin. Crocodile skin can be used for producing leather, while crocodile meat, often described to taste like chicken meat, is considered a delicacy. There are actually famous restaurants in Puerto Princesa City, like Kinabuch, that serve dishes out of crocodile meat.


 

The guided tour starts at the museum where one has to sign up and pay the entrance fee of P25 before entering. Among others, the museum features the skeletal remains of the largest crocodile caught in the Philippines. It has a length of about 5 meters from the nose to the tip of the tail, and was discovered to have eaten half the body of a human. One can also see dioramas and portraits showing how Filipinos deal with these creatures then and now.

 

So here are the the living,  scaring crocodiles…
