Baby croc call

The next time you’re around the mangroves or Route 3 freshwater ponds at Buloh, listen out for this – the sound of a young estuarine croc calling out to its mom. This was recorded on my N97 about two months ago, while doing my bird-ringing mist net rounds. Apparently, (Nile) croc babies start making umph sounds even before they hatch!
