The Crocodile Park Torremolinos
Amazing Croc Facts
- They live up to 80 years. That is even older than Miss Jane!
- They can go over a year without eating.
- These carnivores knew the dinosaurs. They have survived 200 million years of evolution. Wow, that is a very, very long time!
- Crocs bask in the sun with their mouths open to prevent them over heating.
- 'Crying crocodile tears' (false tears) comes from the myth that reptiles weep when eating humans. They do wipe their eyes when feeding, but only because their eyes bubble and froth when eating.
The Crocodile.
Today I saw a crocodile,
It sat and stared at me!
I didn't run, I didn't shriek,
In case I was his tea!
The beast prepared to eat me up,
He snapped, he snarled, he blew!
But I just stood and tapped the glass,
'Cause this croc is in the zoo!
