I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
When Dr Brady Barr decided to dress up as a crocodile, the disguise needed to be good.
Otherwise he was in grave danger of being eaten by the real thing.
The zoologist adopted his bizarre outfit in the hope of getting closer to a colony of Nile crocodiles, which can grow up to 20ft.
His disguise was a prosthetic head attached to the front of a protective metal cage covered with canvas and a generous plastering of hippo dung to mask his human scent.

“Otherwise he was in grave danger of being eaten by the real thing.”
Wouldnt the amount of danger increase as he tries to get all snug and cuddly with the real thing?
Ain’t hard to fool a croc. I heard a naturalist say that their brains are like a perpetual busy signal. They are animals of instinct and reaction. If dude looks like a croc, smells like a croc, and moves like a croc, he must be a croc! Still, dude has stones…I saw him on Discovery and Letterman.
Say hello to Steve Irwin when you see him, dude.
I’d be worried about him drowning. I can just see another croc trying to push him around and him ending up in the water.
LOL, pvc! It’s just a matter of time. Corwin almost had his arm torn off by an elephant…
Heh. Dundee already did that (in the second movie, that is).
Speaking of Steve Irwin: I am stuck in Boston for the summer. So, while visiting New England Aquarium, I found Steve Irwin action figures (“Genuine Steve Irwin Item”, etc.) in the gift shop. Alas, my search for “Genuine Steve Irwin Stingray Barb” produced no result.
