The bonus area can be found at the start of the level. Behind where Croc is facing is a little rock on the ground. Stomp on it three times to reveal a small pit containing [[Sparkling Stars]]. Inside the bonus area, there are five [[Worms in Wells]] with 5 Lives floating above them. It is likely you won't have any crystals to protect you from the worms, so be careful. Wait until the Worms have popped back into their wells and then jump into the well, and Croc will be able to bounce up to the lives. Touch the stars at the end of the cave to go back to the main part of the level.
