Is Goliath really a American Crocodile? He seems very large...

I once had a 5' acutus that regularly beat up alligators twice his size. Whichever side of the pond he was on, the alligators were on the other.
American crocodiles easily reach sizes like the one in that video.

The gators that he killed looked like they were a huge size themselves. He is a tough, mean croc.

I detest the enclosure in which he lives. Water is to shallow and it is about the most plain enclosure I have seen but he seems to thrive there. Although I think I remember him having a sunburn on his back when I viewed him a few years ago.

I think they are in south florida somewhere. Do people normally keep crocodiles in alligators in the same ponds? Just wondering.

I have seen both in the same ponds many times but they tend to stay away from each other. They must be racists. LOL

Florida has okay laws as far as keeping exotics if you have the room/enclosure but weak as far as proper housing goes.
