Vegetarian Crocs





What is unusual about the reptiles that live at Nyanyana crocodile farm?
They are vegetarian because they eat vegetarian pellets. They sleep a lot more than normal crocs and they have skin softer than normal crocs. They not as vicious.

How did they turn this way?

Zimbabwe has a food crisis so they couldn't afford meat. They had to use pellets made with vegetables and meat then slowly they took out the meat and ended up fully vegetarian




What are the crocodiles being bred for?
These crocs are being bred for their skin so that the skin can be made into expensive handbags.


How do you feel about the crocodiles being bred for their skin? Is it different from breeding cows or chickens that are killed for meat? why?


I think that killing crocs is cruel because I like crocodiles.
