Afr. Dwarf Crocs in Canada

If anybody in Canada is working with or (even better) has Osteolamus for sale I'd love to hear about it. I've been interested in them for years and was curious if any were in Canada.

Good luck, i have been looking for them in canada for years now and never even caught a whiff of one for sale.

There was actually a clutch of babies that were offerred through a wholeslaer a few years back, and I've heard that Calgaray Zoo (I believe) has had repeated success reproducing Dwarf Crocs. Other than that, as well as the odd animal in private collections, I'm not sure there are many around.......

Where did the breeding stock in canada come from? Also, saying you cant tell who has one makes me assume something illegal is happening and if this is true and he/she gets caught he will most likely be slapped with a huge fine and possibly more strict whatever for us.. No good. Xain

I kept two several yrs ago.

It's not illegal where it is now..I just don't like saying who has what without permission.
