webfact Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Picture: Siam Rath Siam Rath reported that rescue services from Sawang Bamphen in Prachinburi went to the rear of a property after reports of the sighting of a crocodile with its mouth open sunning itself by a pond. But as the croc catchers arrived at the 10x20m 3m deep pond the croc slipped out of sight. It took three hours utilizing mild electric shocks applied to the water before the croc reappeared. It was a 2m 25 cm long specimen weighing in at 40 kilos. Amorn, 58, said he had been called into cut the grass when he saw the crocodile. The owner of the land Pranee said that she was an infrequent visitor but had been alerted by the renter of the property that there was a water blockage. This led them to clearing a pond used for agricultural purposes, and the discovery of the crocodile. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-09-17 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Taking drugs and killing animals , what else did you do to enjoy yourselves ? We, err... caught fish to eat. Big mouth bass. Had the lake stocked at great expense. The gator liked to eat them too. Very Darwinian I know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might have been a huge surprise if standing in the pond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinnieK Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I wonder...is it an escapee from a croc farm or the local 'dwarf' croc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
