Re: Croc takes vet hand.
When giving a croc an injection, isn't step one; securing the jaws? Sad story nonetheless.

"...But they are opportunistic feeders and are prepared to eat anything they can overpower -- including small dragons and occasionally humans."

Re: Croc takes vet hand.
This is my whole point. When my large salvator passed away our vet was lucky she was too weak to take his hand. How do people do vet visits with large dangerous reptiles? Jaw tying? anesthesia? Perhaps some wildlife professionals can help us understand what went wrong and how to deal with our large aggressive reptiles.
