Few people have close encounters with crocodiles and live to tell about them. Fortunately, the clever people of Darwin, Australia have figured out a way to let people safely view these amazing creatures face to face. At Crocosaurus Cove, people can enter water that is shared with some of the world's largest saltwater crocodiles in the Cage of Death. Members of the park staff then feed the reptiles from above to give the people a thrilling experience.
If you would rather put some space between you and the toothy creatures, there are around 100 baby crocs waiting to be fed from a safe distance. They have loads of energy and jump completely out of the water to snatch the food. If such an experience leaves you on edge, there are plenty of more gentle reptiles to be seen. The theme park also boasts a turtle reserve and a freshwater aquarium. Either way, Crocosaurus Cove is a fun way to spend the day with crocodiles, and you are guaranteed to leave with all your limbs.

很少有人跟鳄鱼近距离接触後，还能活著回来对他人诉说经历。

好在澳洲达尔文的慧黠居民想出了法子，让人们能够安全地面对面欣赏这些神奇的生物。在澳洲鳄鱼乐园中，人们可以待在『死亡之笼』里，和一些世上最大型的咸水鳄鱼同处一片水域。接著乐园的工作人员会从上方喂食这些爬虫类，让游客经历一场刺激绝伦的体验。
如果您宁愿和这些满口利牙的生物保持一点距离，这里还有大约一百苹鳄鱼宝宝可以让人们从安全的距离喂食。它们活力充沛，可以全身跳出水面来掠食。如果这样的经验让您坐立不安，园区中还可看到许多较为温和的爬虫类。这座主题乐园内也有乌龟保护区及淡水水族馆。不论是何种方式，来澳洲鳄鱼乐园游玩都是和鳄鱼共度一日的有趣办法，而且您也肯定能四肢健全的离开。
