American Crocodile Education Sanctuary

A long time coming, the date is finally set, FOR SURE, for the rescue and relocation of about 30 freshwater Morelet's crocodiles, Crocodylus moreletii.

Thanks to the Summerlee Foundation who donate $8,000USD to both ACES and The Belize Vivarium to construct natural and safe containmnet facilites for the crocs in need. 

The mass crocodile conservation effort will be headed by the Belize Forest Department and will take place on Tuesday, November 8th, 2011.

The public is invited to be at The Caribbean Shrimp Farm in Ladyville to Welcome the rescued crocs to their new home. Anticipated time of arrival will be 2 pm. (Please note that the time of arrival may change due to unforseen capture and transport difficulties.)
