A visitor to the Guangzhou Crocodile Park, the largest one of its kind in the world, kisses a baby crocodile May 27, 2004 while others look on. The park, which houses nearly 100,000 crocodiles of various types from around the globe -- accounting for more than 70 per cent of the country's stocks of crocodiles -- opened to the public yesterday. It is located in the Panyu District in Guangzhou, capital city of South China's Guangdong Province. The park shoulders a series of functions including crocodile breeding, research and tourism.
