This crocodile knows that personal hygiene is really important! Especially when it comes to mouthwash. That’s why he uses this giant mouthwash station to clean his teeth! Well, In reality, the crocodile is perched here for a much more sinister reason... It's waiting for fish to come down the waterfall and fall right into that giant mouth! Seen during a <a href="https://rumble.com/v3s3nt-safari-tourists-spot-five-legged-elephant.html" target="_blank">safari</a> in Kenya at the Tsavo West National Park/Mzima Springs in 2007.
It was funny for a second to think that this crocodile was here for the personal hygiene and for the good health of his teeth! However, even though this crocodile wasn’t paying attention to the personal hygiene, we have to remember that is the most important habit we need to have!
Crocodiles or true crocodiles are large aquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily.
Crocodiles are clearly ferocious hunters, but they are opportunistic predators. Any animal that moves is fair game. They will even venture onto land to find prey. They are dangerous and scary animals and they are vicious hunters!

An unfortunate impala jumps over a dam in Kruger National Park and straight into the jaws of an eager crocodile. The grisly catch was caught on camera by Rene van der Schyff, 50, an individual right hand from Phalaborwa, South Africa. Rene was going to the recreation center with her significant other when she saw the stunning slaughter. The impala endeavored to cross the Sable Dam when the crocodile shot up and got it in mid-air.
Have you ever heard about the expression ‘crocodile tears’?! "Crying crocodile tears" – displaying fake sadness – comes from the myth that the reptiles weep when eating humans. They do wipe their eyes when feeding, but only because their eyes bubble and froth when eating. Also last but not least, Crocodile skin is viewed as one of the finest, loved for its sturdiness and delicateness. It's an indication of status in inborn social orders. Interesting!

Underwater Museum Acts As A Safe Haven For Protecting Marine Life
An incredible footage has emerged of the underwater museum in Lanzarote, Spain, where sculptures act as a silent appeal to protect the ocean! Check out this amazing clip, and find out for yourselves!
This is the first underwater museum in Europe. It is an appeal to protect and appreciate the <a href="https://rumble.com/v3a1te-spend-2-minutes-in-an-underwater-world-of-mystery-and-beauty.html" target="_blank">underwater world</a>. The museum covers an area of 2.500 square meters. All sculptures were designed by Jason deCaires Taylor. Curiously, the model for many figures were residents of the island. Amazing!
The exhibition aims on reflecting today’s society. Over 200 life-size figures were made for this sculpture. They form a reef for marine species to inhabit. The important message this video has to convey is ‘be a human, protect the ocean, so far as you can’.
Lurking underneath the ocean is the Cancún Underwater Museum based in Cancún, Mexico devoted to the art of conservation. With a total of 500 sculptures, this museum mostly flaunts the work of British sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor together with the work of five Mexican sculptors. This hidden gem consists of three different galleries submerged three to six meters deep in the ocean.
This genius idea was presented by Marine Park Director Jaime Gonzalez Canto, and together with Taylor's assistance, museum’s objective is saving the nearby coral reefs by providing an alternative destination for divers. Would you mind visiting these <a href="https://rumble.com/v4cu3h-new-underwater-military-statues-will-honor-veterans-and-create-scuba-destin.html" target="_blank">underwater statues</a>? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
In addition, the museum had to obtain a permit to sink 1,200 structures in 10 different areas within the National Marine Park so that snorkelers, scuba divers, and tourists can visit the underwater exhibits via a glass-bottom boat. How cool is this? We will definitely put this amazing place on our bucket list!
