It gives new meaning to “too stupid to live,” doesn’t it?
margueritem over 12 years ago
ACK! Poor, stupid Burt.

At least Igor wasn’t the test subject for Frankenstein’s resurrect the dead experiment.
hariseldon59 over 12 years ago
At least it wasn’t Bob this time. Poor Burt. What a crushing defeat.
Sherlock Watson over 12 years ago
I wouldn’t want a job like Burt’s; too much pressure.
LiviaBay over 12 years ago
Poor Burt …R.I.P.

Burt get waxed as often as Kenny on South Park.
Sisyphos over 12 years ago
Burt has become a Bob! And a tiny, compact one, at that!.Nice of Larry [?] to keep Zeeba Neighba informed of the crocs’ latest failed wacky capture-plan.
lastangelman over 12 years ago
Zeeba Nay-bah is fortunate he lives next door to what must be the dumbest tribe of crocs that Nature ever spit out. Heaven help him if he ever ran into a real crocodile.
aprice_bcd over 12 years ago
Perhaps it is a different Burt or bob each time – I mean the Crocs don’t seem smart enough to even thing of more than 3 or 4 names between them
Bill Chapman over 12 years ago
There’s stupid, and then there’s those who WORK at stupid – and nearly all the crocs fit in the last category.
Zebrails over 12 years ago
Burt = Bob Reincrokinated
unnormal over 12 years ago
It’s touching to see Larry’s (?) compassion for his fellow croc.

So where did zeba’s huge wall go Hmm answer me that Mr Pastis ?
djsabc over 12 years ago
Call the gang from Swamp People and put the croc’s out of their misery.
hariseldon59 over 12 years ago
Burt couldn’t take the pressure of being a professional scientist.
Logical Duck over 12 years ago
It doesn’t appear to be plugged in.
corzak over 12 years ago
Pastis increased the compression codec of Burt’s image so that he would download faster.
A_NY_Outlaw over 12 years ago
I wonder if Burt came out of the compactor shaped like a croc boot.
finale over 12 years ago
Teeny, tiny Burt now go after grasshoppers for deener.

Do not try this at home. Leave it to the professionals.
XtremePearls over 12 years ago
again, the idiot crocs strike.
ShadowBeast Premium Member over 12 years ago
Do these crocs stay dead or simply come back to life like rat and pastis has?
imbaldeagle over 12 years ago
As a retired scientist, I agree that a professional should not get emotional over the results of an experiment. It tends to skew the interpretation so that the facts may be missed. Since Burt “screams a lot”, you better repeat the experiment with Bob & continue with others of your tribe until the screaming stops. Maybe anesthesia would help.
Logical Duck over 12 years ago
Well, it depends.
ironflange over 12 years ago
Some of those crocs ought to be wearing red shirts.
firedome over 12 years ago
now, you see? this is why i love the crocs. sure, they’re basically a one-joke group of characters, but i love the way stephan tells the joke so differently, each time! i fell off my chair laughing at this punchline at work today. good thing no one else was in the break room when i did!
fatjimi over 12 years ago

NJ Lyon over 12 years ago
To quote Stephan;“Another day, another croc death. Poor little guys.”
Although I’m not sure if ‘poor’ fits. Change it to ‘stupid’ and it would be perfect.
