Dangerous- Yes but I say most accidents could be avoid with a little common sense. You put a croc in a fish tank and even I hope you get bite for being stupid.

I have dealt with a few crocs in a span of almost 10 years. If given the proper space, adjustment time, and setup they are very rewarding captives.

The problem lyes with people grabbing them up, sticking them in a vision or vision tank and acting like it is a beardered dragon.



Personally I would not prefer a 6ft species of any varanid to latch its self to me. I have had 4ft crocs nail me but all my fault. Actually my tristis tristis hold the title for most bites to my flesh right now .



By no means do I suggest anyone keep crocs as most will not house them right. I'm still learning everyday myself.



They should sell common sense with every monitor purchase :D



Cheers, Dustin
