Montu

When leaving the station, the train used to pass over live Nile Crocodiles!  It was so cool to look down and see these crocs under my feet!  After living by the station for four or five years, the massive reptiles were relocated to another section of the park.  Today, this area is just filled with rocks.

I originally shared this picture with the caption that these were live alligators.  It is hard to make a positive identification from this old picture, but I think they were crocodiles and not alligators.  If you visit the park these days, Busch Gardens Tampa is home to both gators and crocs, but neither type of reptile is close to Montu.

Montu and live crocodiles!
