There are a few people who think they could live as long as 100 years, and a few individuals probably do as with humans, but on avarage it would probably be less.

Woohoo! i was right! lol Quote: |
It is clear that stories of crocodiles living hundreds of years are simply untrue, yet there is reasonable evidence that medium to large species are capable of attaining at least 60 to 70 years when disease, starvation and predation have been avoided.

you can get them in NSW on a exhibitors Lic. So if you really want one, they are obtainable

In Vic there is no restriction on size, the DPI and Animal Welfare have restrictions on the size of the enclosure, that will stop most people having them in their backyard. Apart from that you can keep any croc to any size.

once they reach 2.5 you have to have them come out and see that you have a suitable size enclosure to keep them further. They then grant you a permit (in Vic)
