In Dili the police keep a crocodile as a pet!

While in Dili I heard a rumor that the police at the UEP Unidad Especial da Policia keep a pet salt water crocodile and will let visitors feed it a chicken, and since I love animals I decided to track the crocodile down. Sure enough, the rumors were true. When the crocodile saw the chicken he got really excited, the same way my dog gets when he knows he’s going to get a treat. It was such a cool experience. #crocodile #dili #timorleste
