snoop1130 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Photos via KhaoSod A businessman in southern Thailand claims his secret to great health is by drinking crocodile blood mixed with alcohol twice a day. He says he used to be exhausted but is now full of life after two months on the reptile juice. Every day, 52 year old Rojakorn Nanon from Na Tham Tai subdistrict in Trang province starts and finishes off his day with a glass of crocodile blood mixed with lao khao (Thai white spirit). He believes that the cocktail nourishes the body, the blood, and the nervous system. He says it is ancient wisdom. Rojakorn says he used to be physically weak. After tasting the crocodilian blood, he said he felt much better. He began drinking a cup of the alcoholic blood in the morning and one at night and now he swears by the stuff. He says the drink probably only exists in Trang province due to the prevalence of crocodile farms. Rojakorn’s crocodile blood is supplied by 53 year old Wanchai Chaikerd, the owner of a crocodile farm in Ban Pho subdistrict in Trang province. He is also the chairman of the Trang Crocodile Breeding Group, reports KhaoSod. Wanchai says he has run the freshwater crocodile farm for five or six years already. With a current population of 120 crocodiles, it is the biggest farm of its kind in the province, claims Wanchai. Before the pandemic, Wanchai mostly raised crocodiles to sell to buyers in central provinces for high prices. Most customers bought them for meat. However, Covid-19 made it difficult to export crocodiles anywhere, so he sold them locally for a discounted 4,500 – 8000 baht each.

Mintyy Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 With the high amount of violent crime that is occurring in Trang recently; I suppose we found our culprit: Crocodile blood mixed with alcohol. Might as well throw in some methamphetamines. Poor Crocs. Trang is giving Nakhon si Thammarat a run for its money - For the quickest to kill province in Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cncltd1973 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 this report will result in many more crocs being killed for more tired men to get boners. I wish the editor would have buried this article for the sake of ecology. one thing we've all learned is that asian men will kill and eat anything and everything for more vitality, is there a single rhino or tiger left alive in China?
