described by experts as a vicious killer

Very technical description. I wonder where they found these "experts". In the pub, I reckon!

"The alligator was a Spectacled Cayman... "

Pfft Bloody ignorance lol

They're great animals though, but when they get big you either need to be prepared to take care of it, or have someone you know who'll take it!

I think I saw some freshies in Herptrader, thought this post was referring to that

Alligators are relativley docile as large mammals are not their prefered prey. Wonder how they would describe a salty?

 

[Fuscus]

here is the same story, different experts and the animal has changed size.

And if you are after fresh water crocs http://www.reptilecenta.com.au/ has them for $400 dispite what thier website says (I don't think that they are very good at updating their website, generally have nice animals though)

Fuscy - Inny will have to lick your fingers for the scotch - people looking on will think he's kissing the royal Fuscus hand . . (I was going to type 'ring' but I know how the minds work lol -!) you'd do anything to be worshipped wouldn't you? :lol:

Some journalists have no idea -

The lizard may have been quite upset by being stuck in the boot of a car, and is now being cared for at a sanctuary.

quote "It is expected the reptile will eventually be rehoused, probably in a zoo."

well at least they are doing that instead of killing it like everyone else does with illegal reptiles

What a load of crap! "Vicious Killer"? Come on, it's a caimen for Christ's sake. We may end up with the same thing. There's a kid around here that has one and doesn't know what to do with it, so we may end up with it. They're not killers. They are very common in the pet trade here and are bred readily in captivity. They go for about $150CND, and alot less in the U.S. .
