I can’t stop thinking about crocodiles for some reason so here’s some cool pictures I found of probably the second largest one in captivity, his name is Utan:

I've been posting these on twitter and instagram, but for Kaijune, I wanted to share a classic story of mine from 2017 - "THE OXPECKER AND THE ELEPHANT" - a tale of castaways and friendly natives, and the culture clash between them...
