American Alligator husbandry questions.

[Eric Alan]

Im more than ready to own one but need the permits. I want to have hands on physical knowledge of these animals as i find them interesting, the same reason people buy snakes. They find them interesting and have a loving, caring, burning passion for them. I have that same passion for crocs. I want one.

I can certainly appreciate that, but you're going to need more than a loving, caring, burning passion to get a permit:

58 PA Code §147.81. Special Permits - Endangered or Threatened Species - Scope.
(a) The permit will only be issued if it can be established that the possession of the endangered species will enhance the species as a whole.
