Many years ago in Louisiana USA I did a swamp tour. They fed the alligators (and at least one raccoon) marshmallows!
Crocodile cruise in Costa Rica - much smaller crocodiles - they were not feeding them at all
Last time I did a crocodile cruise in Australia we were still feeding them meat.

Probably why the crocs bigger 😉
 
I used to love the way Steve Irwin talked about the beautiful croc. I really do miss him & his appreciation for our wildlife.
The best place to see and learn about crocodiles is Hartley’s Crocodiles just north of Cairns.

I agree that Hartley's Creek Zoo as it was in 1965 was a great place to view & learn about the reptiles for a new chum like me. But having lived in Brisbane since1977 Australia zoo is much closer & I really did admire Steve Irwin for his devotation of our wildlife. When he & his wife took over the running from his father all the animals were taken better care of than when his father ran it.
