do you think it's right? or endangering the boy or wrong message? what you reckon?

 
Crocodile Man? you mean Steve Irwin? or Mike Dundee?
 
no, its Fearless three-year-old Charlie Parker plays with a North American baby alligator named Gump, Brisbane, Australia.

Charlie boasts an extraordinary knowledge of animals and is laying claim to being Australia’s youngest wildlife ranger.

yes the Late Steve Irwin was the Crocodile Man, and no, not even the fictional Mike Dundee, its just me saying the odd one out who is gifted with wild crocs don't just disappear, someone else will replace...it seem that kid might...
 
An adult was with him so he wasn't alone and it's unlikely the first time he's handled a baby crocs so I doubt he was at risk. It was probably also his own desire to do this and he seemed to be having fun. I just hope as he gets older he continues to use good judgement in handling these animals.

Rule #1 - you are always at risk when handling a wild animal.

that "baby croc" can twist off his fingers/hands like a paper towel with a death roll. and its tail whip is strong enough to leave a scar on his face.

Jiro , people might think you're a ' joy killer" when you're being so sensible .
I agree with you . I saw a boy that needed to have stiches because a 'cute rottie puppy' bit the boy right in the face.
 
In terms of boy bitten in face - sad but common as small children are naturally more at dog level and also more likely to get down and stare at a dog or pat at them on the face, both of which are very rude from the dog's perspective.

I really did think of Steve and Bindi Irwin when I saw the shots of the boy with the gator-

that's fine. let them think I'm a joy killer because this is definitely not cool in my book. it's crazy and stupid.
 
I agree. it's not cool. No way would I let a kid handle a crocodile or any wild animal, even myself.

I agree with you 100%!

When I was a little girl I had to have a finger sew back on. My dad brought some lobsters home for dinner a few days later and put them on the table so I could see them , dad thought all the lobsters claws been pegged so they could not open their claws anymore. One lobster was not pegged and it open it claw and got my fingers and the one that just been sew back on! HOLY CRAP did that hurt! If a lobster can cause that must pain I hate to think what a baby croc with a mouth full of razor sharp teeth could do a child face.

The boy's parents where thinking of getting the puppy for a pet. The puppy was put down. I was shocked to heard that, but the seller was told they had to by the ACO.
 
hi back 8am here,,and still in bed, with the lappy on my lap, its so freezing out!..
,there's interesting feed backs we have here, its bit like being film critics and questioning violence, or the glamorizing of it...now...consider this, don't this glamorizing reflects to how 'we thinks' about bravery or strength or control over animals is some kind of domination quality that the aggressive society seem to condone? some might say 'human nature' or 'natural aggression' or 'humans are evil to control every specie 'beneath' the human race on earth' or even 'male superiority' as in display of power and strength ?

not just 'children shouldn't be doing this' ,add to this, notice he was supervised by a zoo-keeper who took glee to see 'my boy' is going to grow up as a second 'Steve Irwin' in a similar way as 'football players' seeing their sons to have 'winners with ball and will be the 'best'??'
just something else to digest that's all... I'm not trying to stir you up, just its more about thinking deeper than what it seems
Cheers
