Croc

Posted by Camillus (Shunfu, Singapore) on 26 April 2007 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

This croc was taken in a crocodile farm in Johore. It would eventually be slaughtered, its meat sold as a delicacy, and its hides turned into leather. The crocodiles are reared on a diet of live chickens. Each day, the farmer throws a few chickens into the enclosure, which are devoured quickly. Although live feeds present an ethical dilemma to many in the world, the farmers there couldn't care less.
