Philippine Crocodile Crocodylus mindorensis
Philippine Crocodile Crocodylus mindorensis
Location: Puerto Princessa, Palawan, Philippines
I never make a visit to Princesa without a stop at the croc farm, where Curator and wildlife vet Glenn _______ overseas a hatchling colony of the world’s most endangered crocodiles. Found in rivers on the island of Busuanga at the northern tip of Palawan Province, and in Mondoro, only 70 specimens are estimated to remain in the wild. These guys are doing great under Glenn’s care. At least tripling their bulk since our February visit.
