https://twitter.com/shannonsharpeee/status/1630568238630461441?s=46&t=PGv7U5gYKFFvlwSQLEGoZw this has SO MANY likes and retweets how do you even go about combatting the misinformation :(((
Link for everyone - it's a video of a young alligator getting brushed with a toothbrush. The alligator's body is very tense, and they close their eyes and open their mouth.
Yeah, this isn't cute, and this isn't what a happy alligator looks like. This is one of those cases where it's really easy for people who don't know about reptiles to anthropomorphize - it can look to the untrained eye like the alligator is "smiling."
Tumblr media
I think the best way to combat misinformation like this is to provide people with the tools to tell on their own if a crocodilian is feeling content. This video is actually a perfect example of what to look for in a stressed crocodilian - tense body, open mouth, leaning the head back, and clenching the eyes shut are all signs of stress and fear in crocodilians.
A content crocodilian will look much different! They'll be laying loosely, often with their limbs splayed out. The mouth will usually be closed (though they might open their mouth to thermoregulate) and their body will look very relaxed.
Tumblr media
Another thing to look for in videos like this - is the crocodilian's mouth taped? No real professional will ever handle a crocodilian without taping their mouth shut, because of the danger crocodilians can pose to humans. Taping the mouth doesn't hurt the animal, and it helps keep everyone safe. Even small crocodilians should always be taped when they're being handled.
Tumblr media
In short, this video combines a misreading of crocodilian body language with a lack of common-sense safety precautions - it's an accident waiting to happen!

yikes . . .
Link for everyone - yikes is right!
This video is like a crash course in what not to do as a reptile keeper. It manages to both be pretty short and also keep getting much worse. At first, I saw the little tanks just sitting on the floor, and I was like, oh, so this is about bad enclosures.
Then I saw the two large tortoises crammed into a little pen, with pretty bad pyramiding on their shells making it obvious something's wrong with their husbandry.
And then. There's a small alligator in a little pool. And the person filming picks up the alligator and starts spinning around. It's a young alligator but still well big enough to cause real damage with a bite, and of course their jaws aren't taped and all their attempts to communicate discomfort (flailing trying to get away, open-mouthed display, etc.) are being ignored. I really don't like the way the person filming picked up and is treating this alligator, there's just a real disrespect in how they handle animals and lack of concern for handling them in a way that is comfortable and minimizes any fear.
Terrible all-around. I absolutely recommend staying far away from this channel.

We are all going to loose our collective minds when ‘Dangerous’ inevitably releases, aren’t we?
