Food: Crocodiles are carnivores and their daily feed costs are high. Temperature: Crocodiles are warm-blooded animals that need to live at a temperature above 28°C. If not properly managed in winter, they can easily freeze to death. Survival rate: The mortality rate of young crocodile seedlings is very high and it is difficult to feed them. Safety: Crocodiles are very aggressive and are quite dangerous during breeding.
Warm reminder: Swans are protected wild animals. Protecting wild animals starts with yourself, refuse to buy or sell wild animal products, and do not interfere with the free life of wild animals.

No buying and selling, no killing, no eating of wild animals, they do not belong on the table.
1. Why do so few people breed crocodiles?
1. Food: Crocodiles are carnivores. If the temperature is suitable, they will only grow 1 jin for every 3 jins of meat they eat. The daily cost of feed is a huge expense.
2. Temperature: Crocodiles are a kind of warm-blooded animal, and the temperature of the living environment needs to be kept above 28°C. This means that farmers need to spend a lot of money to build insulation facilities, otherwise the crocodiles will freeze to death.
3. Survival rate: It is difficult for crocodile seedlings that are too small to survive. If the environmental conditions are not very suitable for crocodiles to live, the mortality rate can be as high as 50%, and larger crocodile seedlings are more expensive.
4. Farm construction: Crocodile is an amphibious animal. It needs both water and land for the crocodile to inhabit; and it is necessary to build a tall and strong fence (a crocodile pond around the perimeter of the farm) An internal one) and a safety door to prevent the crocodile from escaping.
5. Safety: Crocodiles are highly aggressive animals. If you are not careful during the breeding process, safety accidents may occur, threatening the personal safety of yourself and surrounding residents.
