: do i ever haf to feeed a IG meat like rats mice??? NO
: do they go on strickly vegies??? GGIs are folivorous frugivores (leaf and fruit eaters)

: how big do they acullly get i have her from many people say 3 to 7 feet. Normally maxing out at 5-6 feet...very rarely in wild 7 feet

: will it ever become aggresive if i tame it and train it??? Males moreso than females at sexual maturity @ 4 years old CAN present unpredictable aggressive behavior breeding season or not, tame or not. Females less prone to attacking unless stressed, defensive, in breeding season
: i have seen them in the wild letting people pet them and chase them. Cool...where? Many igs in the wild are used to people being around (villages, dependant 4 food) depends on relationship I suppose and also doesn't mean there aren't incidents of aggression towards people either ;-)...in the jungle yer sure to see much different behavior I bet ;-)
