look at the head of a savannah versus a nile, should ring a bell that something different is going on there....you know those giant snails down your way they are freaking out about? those make up a majority of their diet in the wild.....general thought now is unless you can feed them a diet heavy in large invertebrates and lots of snails to just not keep them.....high diet of read meat leads to fatty liver disease, two lil calcium moving through the gut and a shorter life....

granted they do eat things like small mammals and birds if they come across them in the wild but their range overlaps with the nile and thats what the nile focuses on....the savvies spend most of their time looking for the large invertebrates that permeate the region....
