@ Standing Lion Baby has been looking forward to meeting the huge variety of other animals on this Summer Safari. What a treat to find Mitsy here, too! Standing Lion This lion may be standing alertly looking at you as you drift by on Crocodile Creek, but don't let him scare you! He's actually glad to see you - not as his lunch, but hoping you'll join him for lunch! Pets have a hard time getting close to him, so he's very desirous of having a good friend!
While on Safari, you met Mitsy.
Baby shook paws with Mitsy the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Intense Tiger Baby and PluttiPott got so engrossed in the conversation they were having with their fascinating new friend that they had to hurry along so as not to be left behind! They regretfully bade farewell to their new chum and promised to visit again! Intense Tiger This tiger is very protective of all of the pets that live along, or in, Crocodile Creek - hence his intense look as he asks you what your intent is for being in the area. Just answer his questions without getting sassy, and you'll be permitted to continue your journey into the land of "Croc Creek", as the locals call it.
While on Safari, you met PluttiPott.
Baby shook paws with PluttiPott the Playful Penguin.They both received one silver mole!
@ Look-Out Cheetah Meowchi was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Baby unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which she succeeded in knocking Meowchi’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Meowchi. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!” Look-Out Cheetah The land of Crocodile Creek is so special to its year-round and seasonal residents, and so welcoming to those who have heard about it and are curious, that cheetahs are posted at all of its entrances to spot newcomers. Because of their sense of sight, smell and speed, they are the best equipped pets to spot guests coming from a distance, and be able to run and tell the residents of "Croc Creek" that they have company coming.
While on Safari, you met Meowchi.
Baby shook paws with Meowchi the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Lounging Oryx “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Mrs. Dylan?" whispered Baby. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Mrs. Dylan reassured Baby that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Lounging Oryx Crocodile Creek is the perfect place to relax from one's journey. This oryx, part of the antelope family, is able to enjoy a break from walking, which isn't an easy task due to its long, spear-like horns. These may be made up of the same stuff as human fingernails (keratin), but at 3-feet long each, they can be quite a load!
While on Safari, you met Mrs. Dylan.
Baby shook paws with Mrs. Dylan the Arctic Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ Ruminating Rhinos “What an amazing creature!” exclaimed Baby. Starlite agreed with Baby. “I’m seeing so many animals, birds and insects that I’ve never seen before!” Ruminating Rhinos Crocodile Creek's rhinos, while made to feel a part of the "Croc Creek Community", tend to feel that some of the pets are a bit stand-offish. They aren't sure if their pointy horns or their stout appearance makes some of their neighbors nervous, but they really are kindhearted and eager to be friends.
While on Safari, you met Starlite.
Baby shook paws with Starlite the Midnight Mauve Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
@ Elephant Quarter Both Moriarty and Baby love the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoy introducing themselves to their new friend, who has been waiting to meet them! Elephant Quarter Need help remembering the difference between an African elephant and an Indian elephant? An African elephant's ears are, rather helpfully, the shape of Africa. Elephants can make calls that are so low in pitch, they are below the range of human hearing. These amazing animals can recognise over 100 different friends from their calls alone.
While on Safari, you met Moriarty.
Baby shook paws with Moriarty the Black Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ Brown Bear River “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Bonnie Darko?" whispered Baby. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Bonnie Darko reassured Baby that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Brown Bear River Have we surprised this brown bear taking an early morning bath or is he keeping very still in the water in the hopes of catching an unwary fish?
While on Safari, you met Bonnie Darko.
Baby shook paws with Bonnie Darko the Magician's Rabbit.They both received one silver mole!
@ Dazzle of Zebra Both Ada and Baby love the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoy introducing themselves to their new friend, who has been waiting to meet them! Dazzle of Zebra Did you know the collective name for a group of zebra is a "dazzle"? Also, “motion dazzle” is an optical illusion that occurs when groups of zebra move quickly together. Would you say that zebras are white animals with black stripes? It has been determined that they are actually black animals with white stripes!
While on Safari, you met Ada.
Baby shook paws with Ada the Astonishing Helper Ant.They both received one silver mole!
@ Loving Lemur “I could stay here forever, Baby,” said Raju. “This is an amazing place!” “Well, you never know what lies ahead, Raju. I wouldn't be surprised if the next stop is even better!” said Baby. Loving Lemur While those outside of Crocodile Creek think of lemurs as being ghosts or spirits due to their big round eyes and black & white coloring, they really are "furballs of fun" according to the local residents. While they spend lots of their time in the trees in groups called "troops", they don't use their tails to frolic like their cousins do, but mainly their hands and feet.
While on Safari, you met Raju.
Baby shook paws with Raju the Snow Leopard.They both received one silver mole!
@ Gazing Giraffe Both Willow and Baby love the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoy introducing themselves to their new friend, who has been waiting to meet them! Gazing Giraffe As you float along Crocodile Creek, or venture onto its shores, you may see not just the branches of trees over your head, but you might find yourself gazing into the eyes of this giraffe. Because of their long necks, "Croc Creek's" giraffes help to keep a watchful eye over the land, especially over the neighborhoods that have settled in the tree tops.
While on Safari, you met Willow.
Baby shook paws with Willow the Meadow's Secret Caterpillar.They both received one silver mole!
@ Colorful Macaw Baby and Tiana shook paws and said “How do you do?” to the next creature who had come to meet them, and posed for a souvenir photo. “Why am I always on the left?” grumbled Baby. “Let’s change sides.” “No,” said Tiana. “This side shows my best side.” Colorful Macaw Whenever residents of Crocodile Creek need to do some paining for their homes or businesses, they seek out the macaws who run the area's paint shop. Whether paining a room indoors or needing to add a new coat of color outdoors, the macaw's feathers will help you decide which color to choose!
While on Safari, you met Tiana.
Baby shook paws with Tiana the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Hyper Hippopotamus Baby was excited to meet up again with Mr. Dylan. They both took a moment to admire the amazing scene around them. Hyper Hippopotamus This very large resident of Crocodile Creek may look very calm, but underneath this hippo's hide is a tummy doing flip-flops from the excitement of having new pets moving into her end of the neighborhood. She stays under the water quite often, but her nerves have been known to get the better of her, causing her to come up abruptly, oftentimes under boats bringing new neighbors.
While on Safari, you met Mr. Dylan.
Baby shook paws with Mr. Dylan the Yellow Lovable Labrador.They both received one silver mole!
@ Duckling Nook Baby and shakur shook paws and said “How do you do?” to the next creature who had come to meet them, and posed for a souvenir photo. “Why am I always on the left?” grumbled Baby. “Let’s change sides.” “No,” said shakur. “This side shows my best side.” Duckling Nook Ducklings spend only a short time in the nest—a matter of some hours—before they leave to follow their mother out onto the water. They can recognise their mother's calling sounds from other ducks' in their first days after hatching. They can feed themselves when they reach the water, but they need to learn what is edible by observing their mother.
While on Safari, you met shakur.
Baby shook paws with shakur the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Perched Heron “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Maxwell?" whispered Baby. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Maxwell reassured Baby that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Perched Heron In the land of Crocodile Creek, herons make up some of the "creek patrol". Their long legs allow for them to stride into the deeper waters of the creek to rescue any pets who aren't the best swimmers; while their wide wingspan allows them to glide along the water's surface quickly and gracefully. Many of the residents enjoy watching them majestically fly overhead and will startle them just so they'll take off into the air!
While on Safari, you met Maxwell.
Baby shook paws with Maxwell the Garter snake.They both received one silver mole!
@ Tranquil Swan Scene “Let’s pose with one of us each side of our new friend and I’ll set the self-timer to take a group shot,” said Baby to Dave. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!” Tranquil Swan Scene A graceful mute swan glides down the river with its almost perfect reflection in the water showing the peace of this scene.
While on Safari, you met Dave.
Baby shook paws with Dave the Playful Penguin.They both received one silver mole!
@ Frolicking Frog “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Slushie?" whispered Baby. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Slushie reassured Baby that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Frolicking Frog While perfectly at home in the waters of Crocodile Creek, this frog and his friends have been known to venture onshore after a heavy rainfall in order to hop, jump and investigate what many of the on-lander pets do during the day.
While on Safari, you met Slushie.
Baby shook paws with Slushie the Blushing Koala.They both received one silver mole!
@ Great Tit River Nook Baby and Sasha were entranced at reaching this stopping place and eagerly posed for a picture standing on either side of the attractive creature they had just met! Great Tit River Nook Great Tits are known for their intelligence; scientists were amazed to discover the Great Tit habit of solving problems through insight rather than by trial and error. A great example of this in practice was in England in 1921. In those days almost everyone had very early morning milk deliveries to their doorsteps in one pint glass bottles covered with a foil cap. It was noted that Great Tits had successfully learnt to take off the foil lids to obtain the cream from the top of the milk. They’ve even been known to use pine needles as tools for extracting larvae from holes in trees.
While on Safari, you met Sasha.
Baby shook paws with Sasha the Graceful Elephant.They both received one silver mole!
@ Fancying Fox Baby and jimkitty had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat! Fancying Fox There are places along Crocodile Creek that are small, still pools of water, perfect for stopping by to use like a mirror for fixing fluffed-up feathers or frizzy fur. However, because of the peace and calm of the area, some pets have been known to linger longer than usual, staring into the waters, and daydreaming of what they could be in their community.
While on Safari, you met jimkitty.
Baby shook paws with jimkitty the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Migrating Mandarin Duck Baby is enjoying the view when Marty Mole comes along. "Look! A special prize!" says Marty Mole. Baby looks down and sees something valuable. Well Baby WAS here first ... Migrating Mandarin Duck This duck came all the way from China after hearing about the calm, cool waters and great shore lines of Crocodile Creek. He brought some "color" to his neck of the creek, not to mention a knack for some great Chinese cuisine that his neighbors are often invited over to enjoy!
While on Safari, you met Marty Mole.
Baby shook paws with Marty Mole the Merry Mole.They both received one silver mole!
@ Settled Sheep While Baby paused to drink in the view, Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly) started scrabbling in his rucksack for his portable, foldable camping chair. “What are you doing with that, Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly)?” asked Baby. “We’ll need to get going in a minute or we’ll be left behind!” Settled Sheep Along the banks of Crocodile Creek, where the waters are still, behind a line of trees, lies a hillside of green pastures. Sheep have made this their home as it is perfectly located away from some of the hustle and bustle of the creek, especially during tourist season.
While on Safari, you met Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly).
Baby shook paws with Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly) the Playful Penguin.They both received one silver mole!
Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly) and you found 5 Travel Tokens!
@ Reflective Horse “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Thurmy?" whispered Baby. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Thurmy reassured Baby that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Reflective Horse Not far from the waters of Crocodile Creek, to the west of the hillside that "Croc Creek's" sheep residents have found, lays another wooded area perfect for horses. On a warm summer morning, a mist rises from the creek and wafts its way to this peaceful place where horses reside. This provides the perfect solace for these four-hoofed residents after being in town working hard at delivering mail, supplies and providing transportation of all sorts.
While on Safari, you met Thurmy.
Baby shook paws with Thurmy the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Sheep Meadow Baby opened her rucksack to change her hat. Olivia Anna could see Baby had a large, floppy sunhat, a balaclava, a rain hat, a woolly bobble hat, a beanie, a deerstalker hat and a swimming cap! “Did you bring a fez too?” Olivia Anna asked Baby. Sheep Meadow Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison all raised sheep. Madison was sworn in wearing a coat spun from his own sheep’s wool. Woodrow Wilson kept a flock at the White House during World War I to keep the grass trimmed as a cost-cutting measure and to show support for the war effort.
While on Safari, you met Olivia Anna.
Baby shook paws with Olivia Anna the Strawberry Milky Moo Cow.They both received one silver mole!
@ Unsure Black Stork While Baby paused to drink in the view, Soxy started scrabbling in her rucksack for her portable, foldable camping chair. “What are you doing with that, Soxy?” asked Baby. “We’ll need to get going in a minute or we’ll be left behind!” Unsure Black Stork While other waterfowl tend to dive in head-first in becoming residents of Crocodile Creek, this black stork isn't so sure he wants to jump in with both feet! So many questions are on his mind: what's under the surface here? how close is the shore? can the water be made warmer? will there be enough food? An afternoon with one of the locals will help calm him so that he can plant both feet on the ground, er, in the water.
While on Safari, you met Soxy.
Baby shook paws with Soxy the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Bold Blue Crane Baby and nellie got so engrossed in the conversation they were having with their fascinating new friend that they had to hurry along so as not to be left behind! They regretfully bade farewell to their new chum and promised to visit again! Bold Blue Crane While the black crane is unsure of his situation, his cousin, a blue crane, who goes by "Stanley", is regarded by many in Crocodile Creek as a "warrior", and is the first one to be called upon if there's any trouble. Finding one of his feathers is considered by the residents of "Croc Creek" as a prize of empowerment when facing each day.
While on Safari, you met nellie.
Baby shook paws with nellie the Graceful Elephant.They both received one silver mole!
@ Friendly Capybara “Let’s pose with one of us each side of our new friend and I’ll set the self-timer to take a group shot,” said Baby to choco. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!” Friendly Capybara One of Crocodile Creek's year-round residents happens to be the world's largest "rodents", often measuring in at 4-feet long and weighing 100 pounds. Capybaras may have a "rodent" reputation, and be imposing in its size, but they are really quite friendly, they just need some extra TLC. They will befriend every other pet in the neighborhood and they thoroughly enjoy cuddling.
While on Safari, you met choco.
Baby shook paws with choco the Chocolate Milky Moo Cow.They both received one silver mole!
@ Trapeze-less Tamarin Baby was very happy to meet Max here! They both swapped tales of their experiences of their travels so far! Trapeze-less Tamarin These squirrel-size little fur-balls love leaping from tree to tree along Crocodile Creek. Rather than doing so from branch to branch, this little one will leap from trunk to trunk due to the fact that it doesn't get into manicures, thus its nails can securely grip the trees vertically! Their ability to traverse through trees so quickly makes them excellent messengers of important announcements for the "Croc Community".
While on Safari, you met Max.
Baby shook paws with Max the Merry Mole.They both received one silver mole!
@ Otter Hideaway “Shall we take a selfie?” Baby asked Drago as they drank in the scenery and admired their new friend next to them. Otter Hideaway Don't challenge an otter to a holding-your-breath competition — an otter can stay underwater for several minutes! Otters like to stick together, and when they sleep they wrap themselves in seaweed and float together in a group. A group of resting otters is called a "raft".
While on Safari, you met Drago.
Baby shook paws with Drago the Red Dragon.They both received one silver mole!
@ Buffalo Marsh Baby and BLUEY had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat!

And you may not believe it to look at them, but they can run as fast as 30 mph (48 kph).
While on Safari, you met BLUEY.
Baby shook paws with BLUEY the Blue Polar Bear.They both received one silver mole!
@ Wild Horse Pasture "Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Baby," said Oliver, "for this experience alone?" Baby, admiring the creature at the centre of the scene they were now in, heartily agreed!

They have a lifespan of around 25 years but the oldest horse on record in the 1800s was called ‘Old Billy’ is said to have lived 62 years!
While on Safari, you met Oliver.
Baby shook paws with Oliver the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Ape Advisor Baby and Tesla had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat! Ape Advisor Ape Advisor - As long-time residents of Crocodile Creek, apes have been known to be some of the wisest members of the community. But every once in a while, especially from those passing through, they get asked a "puzzler"!
While on Safari, you met Tesla.
Baby shook paws with Tesla the Brown Funky Monkey.They both received one silver mole!
@ Kingfisher Corner "Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Baby," said Misty, "for this experience alone?" Baby, admiring the creature at the centre of the scene they were now in, heartily agreed! Kingfisher Corner Kingfishers fly low and straight like bullets, reaching up to 25 mph (40 kph) but it’s not their speed that is the most interesting; it’s their beaks. Sharp, pointed, and so long that it makes up a third of a kingfisher’s height, the beak slices soundlessly through water meaning kingfishers can dive into pools without alerting fish. Engineers working on Japan’s high-speed bullet train copied the shape of this beak to prevent sonic boom whenever these fast-moving trains enter a tunnel.
While on Safari, you met Misty.
Baby shook paws with Misty the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Migrating Canada Goose “I could stay here forever, Baby,” said Mr Blobby. “This is an amazing place!” “Well, you never know what lies ahead, Mr Blobby. I wouldn't be surprised if the next stop is even better!” said Baby. Migrating Canada Goose One of the seasonal residents of Crocodile Creek is the Canada goose. These feathery fowl are very particular about who they are - do not call them "Canadian" geese! Their annual arrival to the shores and waters of "Croc Creek" escapes no one as the constant honking and frequent traffic jams in the waterways are patiently endured for the sake of community.
While on Safari, you met Mr Blobby.
Baby shook paws with Mr Blobby the Slug.They both received one silver mole!
@ A Flamboyance of Flamingos Starla was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Baby unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which she succeeded in knocking Starla’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Starla. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!” A Flamboyance of Flamingos Did you know the collective name for these gorgeous creatures is a "flamboyance" of flamingos?

While on Safari, you met Starla.
Baby shook paws with Starla the Blue Beautiful Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
@ Roadside Camels “Let’s pose with one of us each side of our new friend and I’ll set the self-timer to take a group shot,” said Baby to KazeFluff. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!” Roadside Camels Due to the vast arid lands in which Crocodile Creek acts as an oasis, the residents of "Croc Creek" thought it best to guide many of the tourists and newly arriving residents through the hot sands with the help of camels. These guys can help weary travelers get off of their feet for a bit, as well as lighten their loads, thus making the final leg of their journeys easier and their arrivals more welcoming.
While on Safari, you met KazeFluff.
Baby shook paws with KazeFluff the Cloud.They both received one silver mole!
@ Floating Crocodile Baby is enjoying the view when Quasar comes along. "Look! A special prize!" says Quasar. Baby looks down and sees something valuable. Well Baby WAS here first ... Floating Crocodile The crocodiles of Crocodile Creek, the pets who've lived in the area the longest, never intended for their waterway or the surrounding land to be named after them. They have always been content to just be calm and cool in the waters they enjoy so much. When other pets stumbled across the area and found the waters refreshing and the land inviting, the crocodiles realized they couldn't keep the area all to themselves and so have been welcoming new neighbors and curious travelers ever since.
While on Safari, you met Quasar.
Baby shook paws with Quasar the Happy Dragon Hatchling.They both received one silver mole!
@ Crocodile Creek x Baby has had a wonderful day, and has met lots of animals for the very first time, but now it is time for Baby to go back to your page and relax. Crocodile Creek x On this part of the quest, your pet will take a boat trip along a rambling river, each twist and turn revealing a variety of wildlife on the banks either side, or on the river itself. These creatures range from the exotic or endangered to familiar birds and animals you might see in your back garden or local countryside, but there are a few that some pets or humans might find a little scary—'ware the crocodile! Baby has completed the quest! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can take part in the Summer Safari!
While on Safari, you met Népomucène Bibliophilus.
Baby shook paws with Népomucène Bibliophilus the Brown Owl.They both received one silver mole!
