But don't worry, I don't eat humans that often. I like a good tasty meal of swamp critters -- raccoon, possum, fish, crabs, birds; anything I can get actually. And I like to wash it all down with some stones for dessert. Scientists don't know why I do this, and I sure ain't telling. Family secrets, you know. Truth is, crocodiles haven't eaten many humans, but humans sure have killed off a lot of us. Crocodiles are on the Endangered Species List. There's less than four hundred of us left in Florida. We used to be hunted for our skin, and we never recovered from those days. I'm helping my buddy Edmundito talk about our troubles on his Web show Swamp Talk. It's not my style to gripe, but there comes a time when a man's gotta speak. And for us crocodiles, the time is now. Here are some more places you can look (links not here yet--this is a demo) to get info on crocodiles, the más macho reptiles of the Everglades.

I dig email, so send me some at hector@swamptalk.com
