Although books about crocodilians are available, this is the first book to go into great detail about keeping and breeding these giant reptiles in captivity, not only in zoological gardens and on
crocodile farms, but also in small private collections. This easy-to-read and lavishly illustrated book covers many aspects of these fascinating animals, including their status as endangered species; feeding, housing,
and growth; genetics and interbreeding; and nest construction and incubation of their eggs. Ludwig Trutnau uses his own experience of having kept crocodiles in his private reptile collection, and has written a book that
will be of interest to anyone who has the space and patience to keep these easily-bred reptiles. |
