Disguise that took the intrepid zoologist into the crocodiles' lair | the Daily Mail

This guy is a bit crazy, IMO, but also quite creative.







It makes me wonder at how good the eyesight is of a crocodile. You can clearly see his arms and legs as he shuffles about.

I don't have television at home, so I've never heard of this guy. Is he somewhat popular?

That would be scary.

His disguise was a prosthetic head attached to the front of a protective metal cage covered with canvas and a generous plastering of hippo dung to mask his human scent. It was 13ft long - average Nile size. The head was made of glass fibre, while the frame of the body was aluminium covered with a sheet of Kevlar body armour.

What they don't tell you is that he had to hump the alligator to get in position to attach the camera.

I'm a bird. I am the 1% (of pets).

That's pretty amazing and exciting, that guy is brave.

I'm really surprised that Crocs are that blind, or maybe just not as witty as portrayed in cartoons.

He's probably soon to be featured on South Park…
