Living in Cancun - Cancúns Crocodiles in Nichupté lagoon

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Cancún is such an interesting place to live. Just the other day in eating dinner with friends at Lorenzillos Restaurant (the place to go for amazing lobster) and this humongous crocodile shows up for his supper!!

Here's the videos from Lorenzillos a restaurant on the lagoon side of Cancúns hotelzone.

The waiters were telling me that he comes there everyday to be fed. Not something I really agree with. I mean really, he eats better than I do!! Daily lobster and steak 🙄. On a serious note I do remember many years ago Steve Irwin the crocodile hunter coming to Cancun to film a documentary on our crocodile problem and the seriousness of tourists feeding the crocodiles. Here he is with the Mexican Flag in the background.

The crocs rarely bother tourists unless tourists are stupid enough to bother them. There are warning signs everywhere advising tourists to stay clear but you always get that one drunken idiot who loses an arm here and there.

Golfers often get to meet a croc or two on the golf courses.

So thats my latest crocodile sighting. Very exciting stuff! Im a huge lover of all animals believe education is crucial to both conservation and cohabitation with the animals we share this world with.

Until next time. Carry on Steeming!!! ❤️

Cheers and Beers 🍻 from Cancun Mexico 🇲🇽
