Sorry to all who where excited by the fact that caimans have been sighted in KS, it is not the next invasive species. I wonder though, could they put on ruby slippers to get back to South America (is that where they are from or Africa?)
I was actually bored and was just looking at the reptile events forum because I think it would be neat to go to one this year. I went onto the website for one of the ones that wasn't in my area but sounded neat, which then led to one some what close by. On the website for the event they also were selling reptiles, the usual ball pythons, beardies, torts and geckos, they also had some tarantulas, maybe some amphibians if I remember right. Any ways, they had caimans on there.
This is one of those curiousity threads that you start when you are bored and find something neat and what to know more about. So, here is the big question, drum roll please:
How can you keep caimans in Kansas! They were dwarf caimans, but those still get big right? So they couldn't be inside. How would you keep them and how difficult would it be to do so?
Any info on caimans or crocs or alligators in captivity (or the wild) would be awesome because this has arroused my curiosity. I would proably never keep one, but who knows.
