Davao Trip: Crocodile Farm

Due to limited time, we only have a very short day trip before we head on to Pearl Farm. During planning I opted to visit Eden Park and avail of their shuttle tour w/ lunch. However, since we needed to be at the Marina by 1pm, we decided to go to crocodile farm instead. I wasn't expecting much from this park as I thought it is just the same as the one we have in palawan. Hubby paid P100/adult while Dani gets to get in for free :)
Ang mga masayang inihain sa mga buwaya
With the Philippine Eagle
With Eddie (Maisy Mouse's Elephant Friend)
So wanting to pet the rabbits
What suprised me though is the variety of animals you will see inside. Their facilities are in a lot better shape than the one in Palawan. We didn't get a lot of photos, ambigat kasi ng dala-dala ko at ang init pa. There was supposed to be an afternoon show, pero hindi na rin namin pinanuod. We bought fruit shake in a stall found in front of "Pangil", the largest living crocodile they have so far. They also have a small museum featuring the second to the biggest croc skeleton i've seen. We didn't take a look at the breeding/hatching facility anymore and just browsed through various cages. I would like them to consider a small petting zoo but I think it would require them additional staff dedicated to such.

If you have time to spare and you haven't been to a croc farm then do try to drop by :)
