Dwarf caiman comming off dwa?

[otb2]

We have two spectacled caiman at around the size the dwarfs grow to, believe me, you wouldn't want to mess with them, their unbelievably strong and very quick!! I've heard dwarfs are even worse than this!! We'll see when we get a pair!!

I can't help but wonder if this species did not have the word "dwarf" in it's common name if they'd be considerably less interest in keeping them? I think it adds appeal to many would be keepers who perhaps don't truly understand their husbandry requirements etc?

i doubt they will, if they did they would may aswell take alligators off aswell as there not as highly strung

its funny ive hard the same that the cuvier's dwarf caiman will be coming off the DWAL and i also thought it wont happen

I doubt this is true, and tbh I hope it isn't. I have only been close enough to one, but hell, it was a fast 'little' thing. any croc/gator has the power, the speed and the 'wildness' to kill or cause some serious injury if in the wrong hands. I would love to keep one myself, but my experience with large monitors is pretty limited, so a croc is out the question.
