A while a go we rode to the Si Khew crocodile farm. Most of the crocodile hide is sold to high end French fashion manufacturers for belts, shoes and bags.
The hide is packed/ saturated in salt for over a month to remove all the moisture. the salt is changed regularly.

When we looked over they would all dive in, maybe heard about the belts and shoes
