Ok, so I work at a petstore and our store "inherited" a 34 year old dwarf caiman. She was in a cage not even big enough for an ig in a classroom for 27 years. Her mouth is not preperly formed and she needs to be hand fed and she's not at all tame. She's been at the store for about 2 years and fish and game came and stuck a tag on her cage and that was it. I want to try and find somewhere for her to go where she can actually swim, but seeing as her status as illegal, I'm not sure how to do this. I tried contacting places in CA but they just tell me "oh caimans are illegal can't help". Any ideas?
