We made our way back to the "Crocodile Farm" as locals call it, actually called the Palawan Rescue and Conservation Center and signed up for the 1pm tour. The farm rehabilitates older crocs (some live to be 80 years old) and farms younger ones for their skins and their meat. They had a skeleton of a croc that had to have been 30ft long.
The next section of the tour took us outside to a walkway that went over large enclosures full of giant crocodiles.
To our surprise it became feeding time and the caretakers suspended a large piece of raw meat. The crocs all started moving towards it and climbing over each other.
After the tour, we had the opportunity to go on a self guided tour of the grounds where they had a small zoo with various birds, mammals, and reptiles. It started raining a little while we walked along the path through the Nature Park.
The porcupine didn't want to show himself today. We also saw some beautiful flowers and trees.
On the way out we found the Bearcat playing with a caretaker. Amazing little creature.
After walking around the grounds, Chris pulled up in the motorbike to continue our tour.
