Ive seen this before and it is real, I never would of thought a pre-historic reptile could feel emotion or attachment like a dog.

 

[-God-]

I can see the follow-up now:

"He was just so friendly and loving. We never thought for one moment this 980lb wild reptile could one day just decide to tear our friend to pieces. It's so tragic and out of character."

Wait till he get hungry. Then we'll see what a great friend a croc makes.

Follow up vid.

This can't end well. I knew a guy who was a tiger keeper for a while, and although he used to get in and play with them, he said the one thing to remember is that no matter how well you think you know them, they are still unpredictable. I can only imagine this applies more with a reptile.
