Crocodile Hunter - Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures
One of our favourite memories from our trip was a visit to Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures.
Farmboy and the kids had fun mucking around with the resident crocodile:
My approach was more “Rex Hunt” than “Steve Irwin”:
We did see some “real” crocodiles as well:
Even tasted some:
I can’t say that I particularly liked it. Not that there was anything wrong with the taste as such but it was a little on the chewy side for him. Lleyton really liked it and had a second serving.
Then there were the crocodiles we actually saw in the wild:
I took this photo from the bridge we were fishing from. As you can imagine, we were keeping a very tight leash on the kids while we were there. Didn’t want them to fall into the water!!!
All fun aside, I don’t care what the crocodile lovers say, we were kind of relieved to leave “crocodile territory” behind when we headed south.
It was fascinating to see them (from a distance) and to learn more about them. I can’t see myself becoming a “crocodile lover” any day soon.

My uncle had a stuffed croc on the piano when we grew up, complete with sharp teeth and marble eyes.
We were ever so brave to put limbs into his mouth!!
I think it must be the best adventure for you children, what you did for them Lightening.
