Now the length of the crocodile is one and a half meters, it is affectionate like a cat, faithful like a dog, and never bites. Him 65-year-old owner claims that talking with Wally helps him get rid of bouts of depression. The doctor of the pensioner does not mind: if that helps, then why not?
Four-year alligator received the status of “animal support “, which in the USA is usually assigned to dogs. Wally feels when his master is ill and comes to caress. “It really works, it makes me feel better,” says Henny
