Crocodile hatchling swim inside a pen at Nyanyana Crocodile Farm in Kariba
Crocodile hatchling swim inside a pen at Nyanyana Crocodile Farm in Kariba, in this picture taken April 2, 2014. Crocodiles are some of the most feared predators in Africa, ruthless reptiles renowned for tearing their prey to pieces before swallowing hunks of meat raw. But in the baking sun at Nyanyana crocodile farm on the shores of Zimbabwes Lake Kariba, feeding time has a surreal edge as the beasts nibble lazily at bowls of vegetarian pellets. Besides being cheaper than meat, the diet of protein concentrate, minerals, vitamins, maize meal and water is said to enhance crocodile skin destined to become handbags or shoes on the catwalks of New York, Paris, London or Milan.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the Nyanyana Crocodile Farm in Kariba, Zimbabwe. The image captures a group of crocodile hatchlings swimming inside a pen, their tiny bodies gliding effortlessly through the water. It was taken on April 2,2014, by photographer Philimon Bulawayo. Crocodiles have long been feared as ruthless predators in Africa, known for tearing their prey apart with brutal force. However, at Nyanyana crocodile farm, feeding time takes on an unexpected twist. Under the scorching sun, these fearsome reptiles leisurely nibble on bowls filled with vegetarian pellets. This unconventional diet consisting of protein concentrate, minerals, vitamins, maize meal and water is not only cheaper than meat but also said to enhance the quality of their skin.
