 Thought this was weird

I was on Nature Coast Exotic’s website and they’re advertising wild caught baby Alligators. They advertised them as if wild caughts are special, they were like its your chance to own a wild blood line gator.
So basically im just curious as to why they would want to even sell WC’s and whats so special about them.

I was wondering the same thing. I know some lizard/snake breeders get WC animals to introduce new bloodlines to their breeding projects. Maybe it could be like this for crocodilians as well?

yeah that sounds like it could be part of it, I was also thinking it may also have something to do with size although I’ve never seen any studies to show if WC or CB have any effects on growth and overall adult size.
It might be an interesting project now that i think about it.
