Crocodile becomes Costa Rican fisherman's best friend

  

 

  

 by Joseph Ernest  September 28, 2010

 

Newscast Media --  Costa Rican fisherman Chito has an unsual friend named "Pocho" a seventeen foot crocodile that Chito plays with like a pet.  Chito found the crocodile in a wounded state with a gunshot wound, and nursed Pocho over 20 years ago.

 

Since then, the two have become inseparable.  Chito and Pocho now entertain tourists with tricks the crocodile learned from Chito.  While most people would avoid risking their lives by swimming in a river with a crocodile, Chito feels he can trust Pocho enough to do so.      Add Comments>>
