During a visit today to the Hancock Museum in Newcastle James Holland pointed out a picture he has on display since being in year 3 at school.
James followed on with his story how he had always and still very much interested in dinosaurs and this picture was the start drawing an American Crocodile.
James also mentioned some interesting facts about crocodiles.
Crocodiles rarely suffer from cancer.
Crocodiles do not easily bleed out. Including the loss of a full limb.
Crocodiles do not leave a ripple in the water when swimming due to their ridges and bumps on their backs.

It was great to see James showing and sharing his love and interest for prehistoric animals and with this being James final year at ESPA finishing on a high, well-done James.
