PHUKET: A sign saying “Beware of baby crocodiles – If you see one call 076-374105” installed in Soi Palai earlier this year remains there for a reason, Chalong Municipality explained to The Phuket News yesterday (June 23).

 

A “Beware of baby crocodiles” sign in Soi Palai remains in place because officials cannot be sure that there are no reptiles in the area, said Korrawat Phatthanakor from Chalong Municipality's Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation office.

 

“The sign was posted many months ago after a fisherman found a baby crocodile in this area. The parents of the baby crocodile were not found, so we worry that mature reptiles might still be in the area as well as other baby crocodiles”, Mr Korrawat said.

I have to go past a couple of crocodile tourist shows just to get to Palai.

Probably escaped from the zoo or one of the shows there. I would not be worried.
