But new tracking research suggests that for crocs, there's no place like home: 82 percent of displaced crocs returned, from as far as 62 miles (100 kilometers) away. "As soon as you let them go, they seem to turn around and head home," said Perran Ross, a biologist at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville and coordinator of the Switzerland-based World Conservation Union's crocodile specialist group. Brady Barr, a herpetologist and field specialist, and his colleagues trail and capture some of these "problem crocs," following their tracks to the river. They often pursue these massive, aggressive males at night. From small boats, they shine bright spotlights across the water, searching for the unmistakable golden shine of crocodile eyes. When they locate the culprit, they temporarily blind the animal with the lights while Barr slips a metal snare over its head.

var subscriber_p=0, user_id=0; Sign in Search Gallery Learn ... Community WHY COSTA RICA by Christopher Baker Home Travel Costa Rica ... CR Handbook : One Article Paul Theroux, THE OLD PATAGONIA EXPRESS In his highly entertaining and incisive book The Old Patagonia Express, At first sight, Costa Rica appears almost too good to be true. The temptations and appeals of this tiny nation are so many that an estimated 30,000 U.S. citizens (more than one percent of Costa Rica's population) have moved here in recent years and now call Costa Rica home, attracted by financial incentives and a quality of life among the highest in the Western Hemisphere. Pensionados and other Americans-in-residence seem to have known for quite some time what travelers are only just wising up to: Costa Rica is one of the world's best-kept travel secrets, as well as a great place to live. Ticos, as the friendly, warmhearted Costa Ricans are known, pride themselves on having more teachers than policemen, a higher male life expectancy than does the United States, an egalitarianism and strong commitment to peace and prosperity, and an education and social-welfare system which should be the envy of many developed nations. Even the smallest town is electrified, water most everywhere is potable, the roads are generally excellent, and the telecommunications system is the best in Latin America. In 1990, the United Nations declared Costa Rica the country with the best human-development index among underdeveloped nations; in 1992 it was taken off the list of underdeveloped nations altogether. No wonder
