Experience the unbelievable Crocodile Show close to Bangkok Posted by Miss.pa-paavarin thanakankun on 19 September 2006 Thai Nationality |
The Crocodile farm is Thailand's largest, and possibly home to the worlds largest reptiles!! Reason for visit to the crocodile farm is to see the shows they put on. It is possible to witness ‘crocodile wrestling’ and keepers putting their heads into crocodile mouths. Over 60,000 crocodiles of 28 different species, some of them no longer in existence elsewhere. Fresh and salt-water crocs live here, from all over the world, like South America and the Nile. You will see things that you wont in the western world, like a display of the most deformed crocs born at the centre like the 'One legged croc' or the 'two tails croc' or the cage that has a dog AND a tiger living in it because - they have the same birthday!! Also has a great croc show where the guys hold them up and chase them around the water and put their heads in their mouths.In the Guinness book of records 1989 the largest captive crocodile. He measure 10 m. in length and weighs 1,114.27 kg. Details – The crocodile Farm is open daily from 07.00-18.00. Admission is 300 baht and 200 baht for children.
