About this audio guide
This guide to Croco Cun Zoo, between Puerto Morelos and Playa del Carmen, starts with a close look at the armoured back of a crocodile and follows it into ancient Maya belief. It turns on the god Itzamna, a painted codex, and a colonial-era account of a fire ritual that names a crocodile called Itzam Cab Ain. Best heard at the rail beside the crocodile pools, where the animals lie half-submerged.
