Very nice, Thanks for sharing. Still need to check out "bitten". My friend recorded it for me.

Nicest JCP I've ever seen! Makes our c.b. animals seem so dull. All of those animals were incredible - what a trip....you can always post more pics and keep livin' that dream (I am too!).

I don't know, that Taipan looked like he was considering how tough this guy really was! LOL
And Stonefish are even uglier in person than I previously believed!
