    Tips

    Zoologists or botanists should decide what species it is. Probably an estuarine crocodile, because you can make small boards out of it.

    But every time I see the gnarled root, I think of the immobile crocodile in the zoo... 😃

      Hardly noticeable at first glance but a second look is worth it!
