South Africa is said to be the home of Crocodylus niloticus or the Nile crocodile and is a producer of top quality first grade crocodile skins. I suppose then the River Nile in Egypt should have crocodiles lurking around somewhere and I shudder now as I thought of the night when my friends and I took a felucca down the Nile River in Aswan and spent a night on its bank. Surprisingly, there wasn't a feeling of fear of crocodiles when I visited the crocodile farm in Miri, Sarawak last year. There were many live crocodiles there and one had its skin hung harmlessly on a wall of the exhibition room. It was there that I took this photo.
Java Jamboree will be back!
