Greetings from Disney's Vero Beach Resort

I've seen American crocs in the Yucatan as well. They're common in the estuaries and mangrove swamps around Cancun and Playa del Carmon.



They come near the local restaurants that are on the water and scavenge for food.

If they taste anything like alligator, then it tastes like rubber chicken.

I like the natural looking settings they have for their wildlife.

It's pretty impressive the way they have structured it to look like the animal's natural habitat.



What I like even more is Disney's commitment to preserving animals in the wild as well. Just one of their more successful efforts is a project called "Elephants and Bees"and it's done in conjunction with Oxford University. It's a project that teaches farmers in Africa to coexist with wild elephants.

Wild elephants are a major problem for farms in poverty stricken areas of Africa. They ravage crops faster than they can be grown. Consequently the farmers turn to poaching as a means of survival. Research has discovered that elephants are afraid of bees so bee fences are being constructed and used to keep the elephants in check. This has a two fold effect.....it keeps the elephants from putting farmers out of business and the honey from the bee hives, provides additional income for the community.

Our zoo in Calgary tries to create natural settings the best they can too.

Some folks here will eat anything. Just saying.

These are from Epcot. I was surprised how good some of these turned out, considering I was "half in a bag" :JC_burp:  when I shot a lot of them

Hopefully not the two legged kind.

This was a catchable wave, but a bad idea.

I have been to Florida 4 times, but never the magic kingdom.

Epcot was fun and Daytona Beach was nice.
