Crocodile waits patiently for a hundred cubs to climb on its back to cross the river

Consciousness of duty takes on a completely different meaning as soon as you see this crocodile swimming with its children. The gharial, a crocodile-like, waits patiently for a hundred or so young to climb on its back so that they can safely cross a river in northern India.

Gharials can grow up to 4.5 meters long and weigh more than 900 kilograms. And while other crocodilians often carry their young in their large mouths, this is more difficult with the gharial. "The unusual morphology of a gharial's snout doesn't allow that," says Patrick Campbell of the Natural History Museum in London. "That's why the young have to cling to the head and back of their parents."

It already resulted in an impressive photo. To do this, however, Dhritiman Mukherjee, the photographer, had to wander for weeks in the National Chambal Gharial Wildlife Sanctuary in India. He was rewarded for his perseverance because his photo was nominated as a contender for the 'Wildlife Photograper of the Year' competition. Beautiful right.

In this Happy Hour we will of course have nice music and we will call someone who is recovering from a broken ankle and someone who has had a birthday. Around 5:30 pm we have Erik's Tip: [YOUTUBE VIDEO bUQGw-a3D_Y]

Have fun listening!

Decade Dick: Almost all participants passed the traffic exam

Freek Bredius was a guest in Decennium Dick on behalf of Safe Traffic Netherlands department Krimpen aan den IJssel. He was able to tell us that 421 children participated in the practical traffic exam today. All but five children passed. Congratulations to all! The children who did not make it turned out to have cycled on the route with their hands free. The route started and ended at the Tuyter. Mayor Martijn Vroom was present to officially start the first class. 7.3 Kilometers was cycled and the children of the groups 7 and 8 passed all kinds of difficult intersections and traffic situations in Krimpen aan den IJssel. What was very annoying and difficult was that there have been young people who removed or turned around signs from the route. In addition, some plates are irreparably damaged. It was the first time that this happened on the day of the traffic test. Your browser does not support this audio player. You can download the file . Also in this edition of Decennium Dick a...

This week in Decade Dick

What a pleasant crowd it was tonight in the park near the Middenwetering. Strangely dressed people and children running around and running around. They were the children of groups 8 of PCB Het Kompas. Due to the corona crisis, the school camp was canceled this year. The 'N8 van 8' will be organized tonight and tonight. Barbecue, fun, a fox hunt and a night together at school. About the n8 of 8 we spoke with Miss Nienke and we also heard some enthusiastic students. We wish them a lot of fun!

#Sweet

#Lief is a themed broadcast of Decennium Dick on Thursday evening March 4, 2021 ... Love is never sin, living without love is sin! That was one of the texts that was written down in chalk on the public road near the Mieras Church on Saturday. How can we find love again in Krimpen? How can we together ensure that peace is restored in our society? Where we can all live, work and live with pleasure? Living with pleasure is also one of the central points of the Youth Advisory Council of Krimpens-Belang. A group of 15 young people want to help local politicians with their ideas and will provide the Krimpens-Belang and thus actually the entire municipal council with input. Two members of the Youth Advisory Council were our guests tonight. Your browser does not support this audio player. You can download the file .
