Caimens and Red ears
OK not a tortoise but wasn't sure where to post! Is this safe (for the turtle)? Just been to Birldworld and they had caimens and Redears living together!. There was a big softshell in another enclosure but it was buried so I couldn't get a pic

Alot of collections mix these two speices , in general Caimen are fish eaters but i'm sure they would eat small turtles in the wild in captivity they tend to be well fed and so tackling a hard turtle is something usually avoided.
Both speices mix in the wild and turtles will often use the backs of Caimen to bask . Darren
