has any one heard of people feeding crocks out by the power plant we would like to see it

Pleeze don't encourage this. It's very dangerous, and illegal.

Thanks Sun & Sand, someone has to train humans!!

Hey Linda!!! How are you? Hafta say you looked great when we were down last. Hopefully we'll get back down soon and can warm up a couple of barstools with you.

Yes, I saw a crowd over there the other day. I don't think it happens as often though since it is Illegal!

Hi S & S, all is well here, beautiful weather! See you soon!

you can get just as much if not more action at our dinner table on a good night!

I have once seen a croc over in the southern part of the island just off the road. There were many people snapping their cameras away at this thing.

We saw one north of the cut last year. It was dark, and I think we startled it as it was crossing the road. Actually it startled the heck out of me, but we watched it slither into the lagoon, and it disappeared. I think it was about 12 feet long, but hubby said only about 4 feet. I hope they continue to be afraid of humans...

Keep on feeding them and they'll expect food from every human.

they made it illegal to feed the crocs back in october 2006 i think, it was about time cuz someone was going to get really hurt.

Amen

Actually it's always been part of the Belize Wildlife Protection Act, they just finally started to enforce it.

Ditto to Jesse.

A colleague of mine visited early Feb. this year and is still talking about how the kids tied a frozen chicken to a string and brought the crocs up to shore by BEL plant for the price of the bird. He said one kid touched the 9 footer on the snout. I read him the riot act about how foolish and dangerous it is to engage the animals, especially having the little kids do it!

But by being there you encouraged this dangerous and illegal behaviour.... then you go back home and leave us with the problem of hungry, aggressive crocs. Thanks a lot!!!

Take a pictue if you want (from a distance I suggest) than leave them alone. Givin enough time. Those who feed or tease them will eventually get bitten or worse. Leave nature alone, You are on their land, Respect them. They can find plenty of food in the lagoons on their own.

If you want to see crocodiles in a manner that is safe for our community, safe for you, safe for the animal and legal; go to one of the croc parks on the mainland or go to the zoo. If you want everyone who lives on San Pedro to think that you are a complete and utter idiot, go and watch the croc feeding on the island.

Amen to that 2miles and collyk. Its a tragedy waiting to happen. Jesse, I wasn't there, it was a friend of mine who was visiting and told me about his experience. I have always tried to steer the kids and tourists away from that anytime I've driven by and seen it happening.
