Just a few week ago it turned out that a 8 feet long crocodile due to a disease turned from a dull and dark green to a bright orange. Snappy lives in Melbourne, Australia and when he turned orange his owner Tracy Sandstrom was terrified. The vets and the scientists calmed her; it is only a a bad habit which made it turn orange, it can be cured. Snappy (the crocodile's name) had a bad habit of chewing the water pipes in heated bath and by chewing he also broke the filter.The scientists say that what could have happened is that the dry leaves which had fallen in the water might have dyed the water, and since the filter was broken, the crocodile is orange from the color of the leaves. Now Snappy has become a worldwide celebrity!
hahahah omg i love the idea of looking at an orange crocodile, thank god he is not sick but can be cured!!
ReplyDeleteBe sure not to make assumptions in your blog posts and to tell information that is not true. This was not a disease, just a discoloration of the skin from the orange water. :) So cool to see an orange crocodile, huh?
