See around 80 crocodiles at Charles Swaby's Trelawny Swamp Safari, just outside of Falmouth.

Jamaica Swamp Safari Village was initially established in 1969 as a crocodile farm by an American, Ross Heilman aka Ross Kananga. Over time, Ross acquired other wild animals including a lion, and a pair of black leopards and he eventually began to welcome tour groups for daily shows. The farm would go on to earn notoriety as the location for the famous crocodile jumping escape in the 1972 James Bond film Live and Let Die. An interesting fact is that the actual crocodile jumping stunt was performed by Ross Kananga and the movie’s villain was named after him. Legend has it that the movie producers drove by Ross Kananga’s farm while on the island scouting for locations and became intrigued by a sign which read “Trespassers Will Be Eaten”. The rest as they say is history.
