Big Croc Fears

Two weeks before my canoe trip in Borneo this turns up in the world's newspapers and the some of participants are contacting me to ask about the croc situation!

Natural I suppose but in Borneo where we are going there are only false gharials which are very rare, highly endangered and usually harmless.

Won't grab you off the river bank or attack a boat for instance.

Might confuse you with a fat monkey if you were swimming and give you a pedicure

How do you explain the difference betwwen a saltie and a freshwater croc? A shark is a shark, right?

We had to recover something in a swamp in Sri Lanka with the Reserve Rangers standing guard with AKs due to the salties there- reknowed in SL as being the worlds largest!
