So this Christmasholiday me and my family went to SA and I managed to see and catch alot of cool stuff, so I thought I'd share. :)

First is a rock monitor, that I also managed to catch, but I was to excited and forgot to take a closeup pic. ;)

There also was a 1,5-2 meter long croc at a waterhole, that had been carried there by floods a few years ago.

I found this little guy at a penguin colony, but no one could tell me the species, so maybe you can. :)
