How Third World

Although I could see Florida doing this.  From AFP:

Indonesia's anti-drugs agency has proposed building a prison on an island guarded by crocodiles to hold death row drug convicts, an official said Monday, an idea that wouldn't be out of place in a James Bond film.

The proposal is the pet project of anti-drugs chief Budi Waseso, who plans to visit various parts of the archipelago in his search for fierce reptiles to guard the jail.

"We will place as many crocodiles as we can there. I will search for the most ferocious type of crocodile," he was quoted as saying by local news website Tempo.

Waseso said that crocodiles would be better at preventing drug traffickers from escaping prison as they could not be bribed -- unlike human guards.
And they work cheaper.

  1. In a way, we already have it: Everglades Correctional Institution. Canals on three sides with Mickosuckee Indians and people practicing at the local gun range provide back up to the gators.
