Chinese alligators

[Dirty]

Are these available for pets?

As far as I know, Chinese alligators are not yet in the U.S. pet trade, however, they are available in Germany and many other areas.

I hope they eventually make it to canada. From all the research I've done they sound like the best choise for a pet croc. With a size comparable to Paleosuchus palpebrosus or trig and the temperment of a gator. One day hopefully

I could find non in captivity I tried for a while ,(although I didn’t look into European breeders) I would love to get my hands on one of them some day.

yeah, Ive seen a couple for sale in the last year over here in europe. Most of the specimens currently in the trade originate from squamata reptile farm (www.squamatareptiles.com). I'd hate to imagine the cost of exporting them to the US or Canada

I tried the link, it didn't work, I'd love to check it out, I don't think its legal to import them into canada yet but it would be neat to find out where to get them and maybe make some connections so if they do start importing them it may be easier to get my hands on one.
