I am dedicated to the idea. Just learning about them is 750$-1000$ so that much for a tub isn't all that much. The animal is only roughly 300. The money to feed through the years will be extraordinarily more than the pond/tub. I think of it this way. I will do what i need to properly care,feed, and provide for the animal of my interest. If i pay for the crocodile university and decide i'm not interested in them enough to commit to purchasing. I will still have a complete and total understanding for the crocodile and useful knowledge of the animal from a general perspective..
