I know it is off topic but National Geographic has a cool article on how salt water Crocodiles island hop by surfing. The link is below. The research was designed in part before his death by Steve Irwin. Enjoy...
You're right its a fascinating article - but National Geographic don't seem to understand surfing. These crocs are using changing currents (mainly tidal) to get about, they're not running down waves.
I guess the term "surfing" is so cool that NG hope to cash in on its cachet.
