Ten-foot crocodile gets four metal plates and 41 screws in his head

Very cool, I hope he makes a full recovery.
I love seeing people care for animals that aren't cute and cuddly, they deserve to live as much as a bichon.
 
wow, I hope he eats again soon. and i hope he is now a permanent zoo resident. There are so many alligators here in Florida. I am really glad that they dont allow certain sizes to live wild. There are just not enough room for them in town. Maybe in the everglades though....These things like pet doggies:(
 
One question - why?

If he is in that bad of shape that he may not survive, why put it through the trauma of the surgery? Does the Vet need practice? Is the crocodile in danger of extinction? Is it more needful to perform free care on an animal than a human? Since we can give away billions to the thieves that get outrageous, undeserved bonus', I guess a couple thousand on a protected species won't really matter and is actually going to a better cause.
