| The estuarine or saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) at Yellow Waters in Kakadu. |
By Ryan Pearson
I recently had the pleasure of attending and presenting at the 3rd Australian Sea Turtle Symposium which was held at the Territory Wildlife Park, about 45 mins outside of Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory. Following the symposium I took the opportunity to travel the length of the Top End through a number of national parks, including Australia's largest, Kakadu. This really is a must-do adventure where we encountered some of Australia's most iconic wildlife and landscapes. Here are some of the nature pics taken along the journey.
