However, this would lead me to belive that he knows that crocadiles and alligators are both highly unpredictable, especially when being fed food from a human, and need not to be feared but respected as possibly dangerous animals. Perhaps steve has become a little desenthisized to this fact, and he may think he can read their actions like a book, but if I were in his shoes, I would not take the chances that he takes with his child.
