Dance Hall recording artiste "Masicka" has stirred up concern and anger from wild life groups across the island for including four foot long crocodile in one of his recent music video.
It is reported that pictures of the reptile were posted online but wildlife conservation groups are not amused. In the video the reptile is seen being passed around by friends as well as the deejay.
According to the local news reports,there is an increased taste for crocodile meat and an their eggs in Jamaica which is adding to the drastic decrease of the protected animal . Although they have been protected by law since 1971 no one is being penalized for the act of hunting crocodiles and abusing these animals.
Even the best efforts by wildlife enforcement in Jamaica to enforce stricter penalties for these persons have been proven futile. With the lack of financing and resources in the island, acts like these will continue to go unattended.
