Well, don't have too many crocs living down here in Moyock, North Carolina, but their cousins the alligators are coming up and around, particularly in the Dismal Swamp area. You always need to be a MITE careful around there. I was talking to an old timer who'd lived around the Dismal Swamp his whole life, and he said the conventional wisdom was that if you do happen to see a dark log floating along the water, don't step on it.
Here's a pic, I think of one of the gators that's been around the Dismal Swamp area as of late. Isn't he a cutie?

Reminds me of a scene from Smokey and the Bandit II. Sherriff Buford T. Justice is chugging along the highway when his dimwitted son spots an alligator crossing the road.
"Gosh, Pa! Look at that big 'gator crossin' the road!"
"Really? That reminds me, I gotta call your momma tonight..."
