Sergei Falkov of Russia bought the reptile in Africa as a baby, but he doesnt know what to do with it now that its grown; it lies on his couch.
Crocodiles do not make good petsthis according to the Crocodilian Natural History and Conservation website. Not that most people in the world need to be told this. But obviously there are a few who do need to be told this.
Like Sergei Falkov, a Russian from Siberia who bought a baby crocodile in Africa, took it home to his apartment in Irkutsk, Russia, and began raising it as a pet, apparently thinking it would be easier than traditional pets.
Actually, reptiles do not need any special care; they eat very rarely and require minimum care, Falkov told Reuters. Compared to cats and dogs, they dont need any special care at all. The only thing is that you need to have professional skills to handle them; not everybody would agree to do that.

Wonderful pictures!
Thank you so much!!!
Cool!
You’ll enjoy a wide variety of Moseys and ARs..
along with other exotical stuff. True story.
It’s like a gun show where you can actually shoot the stuff.
This year it’s at a river, where we blast tennis balls and
wood chunks out of the water from the bluff above.
I know, that sounds pretty lame...
Just "The In Crowd."
(Some of us have more than one!)
The Mosin has defeated ground troops armed with their own Mosins.
Whether the lesson in that is good or bad..
It’s still pretty cool.
Somebody with Mosins won.
I’ll even bring my Nagant pistol.
A highly impractical, but nonetheless fun weapon.
(Reloading is a bitch!)
Cool! I want to shoot it. Two handed.
Do they use a machine or stitch them by claw?
I wouldn't be announcing that.
Rather you should probably hang your head in quiet shame.
:)
Well, they haven’t had any in useable condition nearby when I had spare cash handy.
Now, the state takes vested interest in what you own or buy.
NY, of course.
:-(
That Sound So COOL!
I don't get to shoot nearly as much as I should or want to. The Only Decent Range is Up north in Parkville and it has wonky hours.
Ill even bring my Nagant pistol.
I saw one of those at Cabales a Year or so ago and almost bought it. Can't Wait to try it out.
This is going to be So Much Fun! :)
The Nagant Pistol has a trigger pull that’s ... oh ... I’d say around 30-40 pounds in double action <;^)
The bigger problem is getting the expended brass out of the cylinder. Reloading is very time consuming.
Other than that, it’s an OK gun. Very quiet and not a lot of recoil.
One other thing. The only ammo I’ve been able to find locally is flat nosed wad cutters.
