The pool's reptilian residents have since become so tame, that they allow visitors to pet them, and seem to prefer fish to more fleshy meals. The oldest crocodile, named Charlie, is the friendliest, and often spends time in the ancestral home of the Bojang clan, who are now the keepers of the pool.

This must have been quite the experience! It was interesting hearing about the Kroc pond--it's amazing they allow themselves to be "pet"...regards from Texas |
