Those slaps were rather gentle, with a spirit of “Get out of here you silly goose!”

[–] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I was really happy to see it wasn't a wallop!

People don't often treat reptiles very nice compared to mammals, but this is understandable and not excessive!

[–] 3ntranced 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

To be fair most approaching mammals don't have the jaw strength to crush my skull like a grape.

But just look at that smiley boi.

  1. Don't put your skull in his mouth then, you goof.

  2. You'd be surprised how much damage mammals can inflict with ease.

That's a funny looking stray cat.

The alligator/crocothing was really confused

[–] Jerb322 28 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Your first guess was correct. Wide, blunt snout gives it away. Crocodiles- skinny, toothy snout.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They would have been fucked if it was a crocodile. American alligators are usually super chill and aren't a problem so long as you aren't actively antagonizing them. Crocodiles, meanwhile, are colossal assholes that are always looking to fuck up someone's day.

[–] kautau 14 points 8 months ago (1 children)

There's also American crocodiles, which are very shy and reclusive as well. If it was a saltwater or Nile croc though, yeah, it would have made a point of ruining their day.

[–] captainlezbian 1 points 8 months ago

American crocodilians are chill

[–] misophist 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Easy way to remember: an alligator's snout is rounded like the C in Crocodile, and a crocodile's snout is pointed like the A in Alligator.

If it looks like a Crocodile it's an Alligator and if it looks like an Alligator it's a Crocodile. Easy.

I tend to tell the difference by which one I will see later vs. which one I will see in a while.

[–] Crow 27 points 8 months ago

Im always surprised how tame alligators are. Nothing like crocodiles.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's how Ripley should have dealt with the ALIEN.

[–] A_Toasty_Strudel 21 points 8 months ago

*pat pat* Off you go. Out the airlock you silly goose. *pat pat*

They are way too casual around something that can rip their fingers and arm off

not too different from the politicians around there

I love gators

[–] wabafee 7 points 8 months ago

Bad boy, bad boy shooo!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Bad bad croc! Shew, go home!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah, probably, I really don't know the difference... except for what Robin Williams said in Jumanji 😂.

See you later
