Madras Crocodile Bank

Madras Crocodile Bank is located on the ECR Highway between Chennai and Mahabalipuram, about 15 Km before Mahabalipuram. The Crocodile Bank houses different varieties of Crocs, Anaconda Snakes (from Czech Republic) and some turtles. Tho' all the crocs look alike without any major difference, except the classifying name board kept in their pond identifying their variety, the park has a good number of these reptiles and is decently maintained. The visitors are allowed to watch the feeding of these reptiles over the weekends at mornings and evenings, which is a good to see activity here. A nice, shady area with a lot of crocodiles to watch for in one place, not more than a couple of hours...
