Spectacled Caiman

Here's the ultimate unconventional pet: a spectacled caiman. I've heard of people keeping American alligators which they'd 'hand raised,' but a spectacled caiman goes somewhat beyond that. What's more, this caiman was being kept in the Philippines - half the way around the world from its native South America. This one is currently in a poorly funded and thus ill-maintained wildlife rescue center in Manila. Personally, I cannot see how it is possible to responsibly keep any crocodilian (the 'safer' ones are all threatened or endangered). Other views are obviously welcome, as long as they are logical...
