Wow, have you read my post.
I do not think my male salt is the Spud Webb of the crocodilian world. That title would go to my young male Cuban.
If you would have said, "here's Rex eating."
I never would have mentioned him being a lame leaper. And who cares if he is. He is still a fine looking croc.
But you did'nt.
You said they were training Rex to jump for dinner.
And (no IF's here) in my experience a large adult captive croc
with no history of jumping for his food, is'nt going to start now. Time and metabolism are on his side. He does'nt need to jump.
Prove me wrong. In a year post another video of him jumping.
I use a lot of "ifs" because I like to deal in facts not supposition. I could start feeding my croc this year and he could refuse to jump. You never know.
BTW the biggest gator I've ever seen, a solid 13.5 feet and pushing 8oolbs. in a traveling trailer jumped way higher than that.D.C.
