Never smile at a crocodile



Blimey! Even I wouldn't dare smile at this crocodile! It's the stuff of Captain Hook's nightmares.

This 21-foot, 2,370-pound seawater crocodile was caught in the Philippines and is now headed to its own exhibit at a local zoo.

And authorities say there's an even larger one they're still trying to catch.

Gulp! Has anyone heard from Hook lately?
Never smile at a crocodile!
Never dip your hat and stop to talk awhile;
Never run, walk away; say good-night, not good-day;
Clear the aisle but never smile at Mister Crocodile!

Words and Music by Jack Lawrence & Frank Churchill
ASCAP, 1952

I hope those seawater crocodiles don't have a taste for vinyl....
