“Zoos should never exist, wild animals shouldn’t be held captive for the amusement of humans,” one person wrote. Another commented, “Leave the animals alone,” while a third added, “When will they learn? This is sad. For a show, was it worth it?”
One user criticized Robert, saying, “He IS taking after his father! I couldn’t stand to watch Steve bait the animals so that he would look ‘tough’ and brave! This is just wrong. Make Robert STOP!!!”
Despite the criticism, some commenters have defended Robert. One user noted, “It’s funny how the internet says cancel but yet his zoo is still running. Sounds a lot like y’all trying to cancel, but failing.”
Another supporter commented, “People need to chill out and leave this guy alone. Do people realize the croc has gone through this routine hundreds of times and it’s not been a problem before?”
The clip shows Robert narrowly avoiding an encounter with Casper, who charged at him, prompting the keeper to yell “Bail, bail, bail!!!” as fellow keepers rushed in to help.
