CROCODILE SWIMMING WITH A GIRL IN CUBA: SEE WHAT HAPPENS


Hard to believe that a wildlife photographer took his daughter swimming with crocodiles in Cuba and flaunt the photography for peoples views.

The 23-years-old girl Alexa Frink, can be seen just inches from the reptile’s open jaw as she swam in Jardines De La Reina.

Stephen Frink, her Father took the pictures of her swimming next to the eight-foot-long reptile, who weighed about 200 lbs.

The fearless Frink said his daughter has been travelling with her Florida-based parents on dive assignments since she was three months old.

Frink only reason for doing that was to show the environment where a crocodile lives as their habitat is under threat from over-development.

“So, it was to be about the environment and the creatures that live there. But, when the crocodile presented his teeth to us so prominently the photographic objective became showing the predatory efficiency of the crocodile,” he included.

Frink talks on how taking pictures of a huge predator on a close range is never without its problems.

“There was of course the uncertainty of behavior. We can only be safe due to the relatively slow movements of the crocodile,” he said.

“But, you should also bear in mind that on occasion it moved very rapidly and purposefully.

“I certainly have more experience with sharks than I do with crocodiles, so there was a bit of trial and error and learning involved in this shoot.

“Plus, I would not interpolate the success and safety of this particular croc to others worldwide.


“I know my friends in Australia would never get in the water with one of their ‘salties’. I think that prudent as well.”
