The Unique Crocodile Ecological Farm is located in Chaozhou Township, Pingtung County, and is the largest and most diverse crocodile ecological farm in the country. The farm houses a variety of crocodiles including saltwater crocodiles, African crocodiles, caimans, Malaysian crocodiles, New Guinea crocodiles, and spectacled caimans, with a total number reaching over a thousand, truly an eye-opening experience; in addition to viewing various types of crocodiles, visitors can also see cute animals such as goats, wild boars, turkeys, alligator turtles, peacocks, and Formosan turtles. A visit to the Unique Crocodile Ecological Farm will certainly provide a rich understanding of animal ecology. The owner of the Unique Crocodile Ecological Farm initially operated a pig farm. To handle the waste generated from pig bodies, he began researching the carnivorous nature of crocodiles as a solution to the pig waste problem. He even traveled abroad to learn crocodile breeding techniques, which led him onto the path of breeding crocodiles. Crocodiles are animals of high economic value and also greatly assist in reducing environmental pollution caused by livestock farming. With a passion for crocodiles, the farm owner advocates for the protection of crocodile habitats and the wise use of the values that crocodiles provide, which is why he established the Unique Crocodile Ecological Farm, aiming to raise awareness about the survival issues of wild animals. The highlights of the farm visit, in addition to the crocodiles and other animals, include various recreational facilities and activities for visitors to engage in, such as the Crocodile Ecological Exhibition Hall, barbecue area, game area, garden-style karaoke, crocodile feeding, and playing with cute animals. For those interested or brave enough to taste crocodile meat, the farm also offers specialty crocodile dishes, making it a truly unique experience.
