I agree with the take on the Crocodiles I, among others, swim a couple of Kms every morning and three days in the last three weeks a smallish 2 to 2.5 meter one has been out. It is totally out of its fresh water element and is not hunting humans. Everyone should back off and give it a chance to go back into the lagoon. It will if it can be left alone. I was a scuba instructor for years and always told my students "the most dangerous creature in the water is you, not JAWS".

Thanks for sharing your point of view. Right on!

The little one you saw leaves the estero at La Ropa to search for food, usually in the lagoon across the bay. A dangerous trip with all the pangas zooming back and forth between Las Gatas and the pier. A much larger croc was recently found dead in the lagoon during the peak of the croc hysteria. Hopefully it will take up residence in the canal where the city stupidly removed two small ones that had been living safely there for years, away from the larger crocs and all the humans at La Ropa. Right now what's left of the small lagoon by the museum at Playa Principal is in poor condition. The two crocs helped keep the small body of water in better shape by helping keep the mouth of the canal open and flowing. Now it's currently closed and getting nastier by the day, worse than it's been for years.
