Its a Cayman. Just let it go in the same spot the guy caught it, it'll find his way home from same route he came with.

I'm all for conservation of the wild

Guy you get mind ooo.

You had to use your hand to carry this animal!

Please dont keep it as a pet. It will eat you up when it grows.

Journey to pot....as long as e don enter nigeria.

Keep it as a pet. It's an option.

@OP keeping such Creature as pet no make sense.

Hope you have watched that movie called "Anaconda" ?

if yes,you know the rest

.

u get mind o,i no fit near am not to talk of hold am with my hand

How does someone think of eating such a horrid looking thing?

Nigerians need to learn contentment.

If you don't have meat, eat oku Eko, no oku Eko, eat egg. No egg, eat crayfish.

No crayfish? Think God for life and assurance that you wi have meat tomorrow and work towards it.

Oh my God so hilarious

Mako the Crocodile junior

Save it for what purpose? I always try to see what is beautiful about reptiles, yet all I feel about them is total disgust.

The person's hand looks like the lady's face in the first picture....

That's a juvenile Afrcian dwarf crocodile. That reptile specie is categorized as "Vulnerable" under the IUCN Red List. Please, return it back into it's habitat or take it to a pet store or a conservation/wildlife park. Also, you can contact the Ministry of Agriculture if possible. You can also take it to a private zoo. I believe there are people who have mini-zoo in their home.

Do as as much possible to keep that cute baby safe.
