Crocodile's teeth

I promised a closer view of the crocodile's teeth. The way to tell a crocodile from an alligator is that crocodiles have a more pointed snout and the fourth lower tooth of a crocodile sticks up outside the upper jaw.

If you are in the wild and not in the safety of a boat and you see something that looks like this photo coming towards you, I recommend that you quickly snap a photo and then run away and not bother to try to get a close look at the fourth tooth. You can blow up the photo on your computer to look for the fourth tooth later.

Do you think it is possible to get a closer look at this crocodile? As usual, the answer will wait until tomorrow.

In Costa Rica, we have crocodiles and not alligators. I can remember this easily because there is a restaurant in Tamarindo named El Crocodilo. There is no restaurant named after an alligator.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site. This week we are showing photos of the Villa Melzi on the shores of Lake Como in Bellagio, Italy.
