  I am surprised they did not shoot this monster.
  
  Another bit of wildlife.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  could not shoot such a magnificent beast too much tourism money involved.
  
  i may be doing the philippine nation a disservice and they may well be adhering to the dictum that "you can judge a nation on how it treats its animals"
  
  i think it was ghandi that said that, mind you it might have been lennie the lion.

  Brilliant comment from man in Stockholm on the crocodile article 'all that hot breath on your neck and you get a tap on you shoulder from his dad', made me chuckle!
  Keeps politics to myself
