I want some rich guy somewhere to go 'Alright, how big can one of these things really get?' and set up a preserve of some kind.

Stock it with big fat cows, and a few big saltwater crocodiles, see what happens.

They'll have to rebrand Jaws if this happens...

Lake Placid is a great film too!

I'm kind of surprised this isn't already happening in zoos someplace.

Allowing a crocodile to regularly consume live prey that has no hope of escape is probably seen as animal cruelty.

Though I think it's also cruelty to prevent a predator from hunting and killing.
