Undercover NYPD narcotics officers raided an apartment in Brooklyn after scoring drugs from the address on several occasions.
During the search, cops found a loaded handgun, crack cocaine, and a foot long caiman.
Caimans are in the crocodile family and are native to Central and South America.
The occupant of the Flatbush apartment, Habakkuk Tracey, was charged with drug and weapon possession charges as well as a health code violation for keeping a wild animal in his crack den.
