Photographer’s Note

They feed the crocodiles in Mamba Village once a week, on Sunday afternoons...

Nairobi Mamba Village (just as the name suggests, since Mamba means Crocodile in Swahili) is the home of Crocodiles in Kenya's capital city. The species found here is the Nile Crocodile - which is one of the three species common in Africa and the biggest as well. Also considered as man-eaters, the Nile Crocodile can, and sometimes does easily snatch and devour human beings at will. The Nile Crocodile also known scientifically as Crocodylus Niloticus - is on average a well known reptile, primarily owing to its huge size.
