Bay of Bengal Part 2

Following our visit to the beach resort we visited the Madras Crocodile Bank which was close by; before returning home. According to their website The Madras Crocodile Bank started out with 30 adult crocodiles in the 1970s  and currently hold over 2400 crocodilians of 14 different species. They also work on protecting the snakes and turtles. I have been here many times and I was happy to see the place thriving well.
