and wanted to know if I would like to try
a crocodile. I went to look at it. It was
lathered under a tree near a small fishing
settlement about 1/2 mile e. of camp. I
bought it for 3 colones (9.70). It was caught
in the lake near the village. Told the native

the crocodile (11/15'). Went night-hunting
after supper. Located another ringneck snake
by sound, in the leaves at the side of the
trail (11/17). Both the geckos and ringnecks
seem to be restricted to those portions of the
trail which run under the trees and are
consequently leaf-littered. I have not seen them
in grass, weeds, or scrub. Took a narrow-
mouthed toad (11/6) near the stream at camp.
Shot an opossum in a tree 1/2 mi. W of
camp. Gave it to Hildebrand.
