Burkina Faso: in Bazoulé, villagers workship crocodiles

In this village in Burkina Faso, people can touch crocodiles, and even swim with them. But this harmony might not last very long...

    I think it's great they found I way to minimize deaths but why use them as side shows? Sitting on them is so disrespectful. Leave them be. It's ridiculous we exploit animals like this.

    So Brut condones animal exploitation when it comes to apes, dolphins and wild cats, but sees this as ok? Tad hypocritical

    "Explotation" that doesn't involve harm, cages, drugs or humiliation. Feels like they're happy with the arrangement. I think they're more than capable to get rid of humans at anytime.

    Why can’t they just take pictures with the crocs (if they really2 need to do it) without sitting on them? 😏

    Great that the locals respect the crocodiles & live in harmony but why do people feel compelled to sit on/touch/ride animals? What’s wrong with watching them & taking a few pictures?

    Very misleading and utterly not honest to have such a title.

    "When they're full they are completely harmless"....."There hasn't been one fatal attack". Oh yeah, how many non fatal attacks have there been then? Would hardly call that harmless!
