Manly Theme Park

I know it’s Shark Week and everyone is talking about that but I’ve found something even more manly than the shark cage.

It’s the crocodile cage.

In the newly-opened themepark in Darwin, Australia people can come face to snaggle-toothed snout in one of the attractions where you can climb into a cage below the surface of one of many underwater crocodile pools. This one has actually angered certain activists as it “taunts” the crocodiles by letting them get within biting distance of your fleshy appendages only to leave them with a just-out-of-reach meal.

Other areas feature a swimming area seperated by glass so you can technically feel like you are swimming alongside these vicious reptiles or just walk through an underwater viewing area.

With over 100 crocodiles not including the famous Burt, crocodile star of the movie Crocodile Dundee, there are plenty of snapping jaws for everyone.

So put on your man-shorts and dive in to danger the next time you’re in Australia at Crocosaurus Cove.

  1. Crocodiles are not reptiles, they are amphibians.
