Caiman Hunter
Caiman Hunter has been rescuing caiman and other reptiles since before 2002. With over 25 years of combined reptile experience, Caiman Hunter has become the logical choice for people from around the country to find caring and knowledgeable herpetologists, for the giving and receiving of rescued caiman and other reptiles and the humane removal of problem caiman. We do not charge for our service. Over the years we've expanded our purpose to include educating the public to the importance of caiman as a keystone species, the role of other reptiles in an eco-system, creating an ecologically friendly home for all of our rescues, and to create an atmosphere conducive to educating K-12's and college 'herp' students. Rescues have been received, or removals have been effected, from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, local Animal Control, Bayou Beasts and many other reputable and respectable organizations. If there should ever be a time when you need to remove a problem caiman, we would be happy to provide that service. And we would be happy to take possession of any caiman that you need to house or re-home; ensuring that it is treated correctly, kept in a way that is optimum for its continued well-being and does not become a non-native species introduced to a local environment. Caiman are considered the third nastiest crocodilian species, behind the Nile Crocodile and the Saltwater Crocodile – and that’s probably due to it being 3 to 12 feet or more shorter than its meaner cousins. With that in mind, we know that you'd rather have us take care of that problem. Removing snakes and other reptiles that find their way into your home or yard (that you didn't want there) is another service that we can provide. Contact us for more information. The majority of our rescues are nursed back to health and are re-homed. Some animals have become favorites among our family of experts and we've expanded our pond to accommodate the caiman that we've decided to keep, could not re-home or were not healthy enough to leave our facility. Along with rescuing, re-homing or removing reptiles, for a very limited time, Caiman Hunter had allowed a couple of our spectacled caiman to breed. This was done to help offset the ever growing costs of treating, healing, raising and keeping the animals that we've rescued. This was a very limited, rare occurrence and is no longer available. To keep abreast of what we have or when we have something, check out this page on a regular basis. Caiman Hunter has been able to raise spectacled caiman in an eco-system that closely resembles an environment that they would be found in naturally. Water temperature, diet, land-to-water ratio and all other optimum conditions are strictly adhered to. For more information on rescues, donating, contacting us for any reason, acquiring or learning more about your caiman, the links and pages on this site should be able to answer most of your questions. If you'd like to read the article Reptile Magazine published, by our very own Caiman "Expert" click the above hyperlink or this one. Similarly, if you want still more about caiman, visit our Radio Page. There we show you how to find our new BlogTalkRadio show, airing every Wednesday afternoon at 1300 hours CST and where you can find links for the live show, the On Demand links, and listings of our upcoming shows. Additionally, CaimanHunter would love to hear about your wildest or wierdest caiman story. Send us your stories, videos and pictures. We give credit where credit is due! And please let us know how we can help you take care of the problem.
