Snap Decision; Crocodiles Back on the Northern Territory's Pet List

Crocodile lovers in the Northern Territory will be able to adopt a crocodile as a pet this Christmas, after the recently elected territory government revoked the April ban on adopting the reptiles as pets.

در قلمرو شمالی، داشتن تمساح خانگی هنوز به عنوان بخشی جدایی‌ناپذیر از سبک زندگی قلمرو در نظر گرفته می‌شود.

The ban was part of then Labor government's plan to manage the population of crocodiles, which had sparked debates during the Northern Territory election in August.

Despite the complexity and risks, in Northern Territory, owning a pet crocodile is still seen as the Territory's most authentic lifestyle.
