Yup, the baby mertens were adorable... However that burmese that they've got there is morbidly obese. It is probably no more than 18 feet long, and under no circumstances should it be that girthy and obese. The poor thing does not have a neck!!! It reminds me of some drugged up meathead football player...They are probably juicing it up with pigs, to make up for their loss of samantha, the world's longest snake.
As far as the gharials, I believe that they are false gharials, unlike their lookalike, more severely threatened indian cousins..quite impressive animals nevertheless.
But what a collection...
