My crazy brother is talking about getting a hatchling "dwarf" Caiman as a pet from an online breeder.
As much as I have tried to convince him that it is a TERRIBLE idea, not to mention probably illegal, he thinks it will be fun and exciting.
He has limited reptile experience, lives in Michigan (so would need to house animal indoors), works a lot and has a habit of getting really interested and involved in a hobby then totally ditching it and moving on to the next thing.
he is also stubborn and hard headed to the point that he would do this just because I told him it is a bad idea.
PLEASE any help/links/resources would be appreciated. If I can get him to look at information from experts it might convince him not to get it.
