A caiman, a reptile native to Mexico, Central and South America and related to alligators, was recovered from a Philadelphia park Sunday.
The abandoned pet was found in the city’s Franklin Delano Roosevelt Park by police at 10:30 a.m. Sunday. Law enforcement proceeded to call in the Animal Care and Control Team of Philadelphia, a nonprofit contracted out by the city, to rescue the reptile.
ACCT Philly tweeted, “Having buyers remorse about purchasing an animal who will grow to be 5 ft, live to be 40, and requires a studio apt with half being temp. controlled water? DON’T RELEASE IT. Contact us, we won’t tell your mom she was right. Promise.” The juvenile specimen recovered from the park is about 3 years old and 3.5 feet long, ACCT Philly told CNN. It was not yet starving and appeared in good condition, suggesting it had been abandoned recently.
