Crocodile!

While out on a drive in the park we found this crocodile carcas -- stinky stinky stinky! But very interesting. We tried to sleuth how this croc had ended up here dead, as it didn't look like a struggle had occurred. Possibly the croc was moving from one water hole to another via this channel, as it looked like it had dragged itself along the channel for some distance, so perhaps it died from dehydration (unlikely) or some disease.

Rich managed to pull out a tooth of this croc -- it was more than an inch long, and hollow!
