Now this is a Crocodile !This crocodile was found in New Orleans swimming down the street. 21 FT long, 4,500 lbs, around 80 years old minimum. Specialists said that he was looking to eat humans because he was too old to catch animals. This crocodile was killed by the army last Sunday at 3:00 pm, currently he is in the freezer at the Azur hotel. The contents of it's stomach will be analyzed this Friday at 2:30pm.

Actually that is a Nile crock and the photo was taken in the Congo. The "80" and "90" on the rear of the truck are the speed limits in kilometers, which is pretty common throughout the continent of Africa. The fellas in the photo are not dressed like Americans at all but rather very much like Africans from one of the poorer countries. The Blue Nile has its headwaters in Ethiopia, but the darker complexion of these men would lead me to believe they cannot by Egyptian, Eritrean or Ethiopian. I lived in Sudan and I can tell they are not Sudanese. The White Nile starts in the Uganda and passes through Burundi then heads towards Khartoum, Sudan where I lived. Anyway, the guys in the photo do not Ugandan to me but look closer to Burundians or citizens of The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DROC). I know "TMI" - too much information... Just trying to help.
