But a man who lives in Costa Rica named Shedden turns that belief 360 degrees around.
Twenty years have already passed since he first saw the dying crocodile that needs treatment because it was believed to be shot by a farmer who lives in the area of the Parasmina River.
Shedden was aware that the crocodile was a dangerous animal but it needs immediate care since it was badly wounded. So Shedden decided to take off all of his fears and took care of the crocodile. He knew that it was already starving so he fed it and from then on he decided to take care of the wild animal.
Chito said, “I love all animals, especially ones that have suffered. I just wanted him to feel that someone loved him, that not all humans are bad.”
He nursed the crocodile until recovery and named it, "Pocho".
Now, the crocodile is safe and fully gained back its strength. Then he returned it to its home but to his surprise, the crocodile followed him home and was waiting in his Veranda.
It is amazing how a wild animal and a person could be this close. Do you think that wild animals could be taken care of as pets as well? Share us your thoughts below.
