Crikey Mate! That’s a big croc!

Living in this area of the continent meant less snow which Scald wouldn’t complain about. The waters stayed slightly warmer, the air a bit balmier, and wildlife abundant during the winter months. He was out exploring the swampier areas of the estuary when a shifting glimmer caught his eye. 

Freezing for a moment to assess the situation, the lanky adult was quick surprised by a large mouthful of sharp teeth came charging toward him. Perhaps the largest saltwater crocodile he’d ever since before was attempting to eat him.

“Fuck!” Scald shouts, eyes widening as he scrambles out of the way. His sense of fight surged forward, body transitioning into a defensive position as he faced off with the scaled beast. As much as he didn’t want to tango with the croc by himself, he couldn’t let it linger in case a pup ended up wandering by. Letting out a loud, sharp bark, he attempts to scare it off before resulting to teeth and strength.
