Description: The Jungle Crocodile Safari is reminiscent of the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland - but without the corny puns. Naturally, you aren't going to see nearly as many varieties of animals as you will see on the Disney tour, but the animals you do see are real. We saw lots of crocodiles and iguanas including a 17-foot crocodile lying on the side of the river. He even opened his mouth wide for a picture of the deadly rows of sharp teeth that lined his mouth.
