Crocs give me the heebies.
I'm glad I don't live up North.
I'm not sure about the 'sluggish waters' bit. Crocodiles are as adept at swimming around the coast for hundreds of kilometres as they are at lurking in wetland meanders.
Five little monkeys
Swinging from a tree;
Teasing Uncle Crocodile,
Merry as can be.
Swinging high, swinging low,
Swinging left and right:
'Dear Uncle Crocodile,
Come and take a bite!'
- Laura E. Richards, 'The Monkeys And The Crocodile'.
Crocodiles swallow stones to help them dive deeper.
