Naahhhh... reptiles are definitely not my thing, poisonous or not ! No croc cuddling from the Jace.

It is good for the children to learn though since these creatures are in their environment. The earlier you learn to respect their quirks, the more chance you have of one of them not being your end.

Lol, it's a bit crazy huh?

In the tropical north it's so easy to get it wrong, simply standing next to a creak, river it billabong (water hole), or at the shoreline of the ocean is dangerous as crocs lurk there. So, it's smart to give the litte kids an appreciation of the animals themselves and the dangers. The saltwater crocodile is a calculating (and brutally efficient) hunter, that's why they have remained virtually unchanged since prehistoric times, a perfect design already, and so being aware is one's only chance.
