Villagers in Nonsri sub-district of Kabinburi, in Prachinburi province, central/eastern Thailand, were concerned that their chickens were going missing.

 

Responsible was a two meter long crocodile that was soon found sunning itself in a field behind Anan Khamphirom's home, reported Thai Rath.

 

Anan thought the creatuire was initially attracted by the prospect of a fish dinner but then moved in on a chicken farm in the area.

 

Local authorities and rescue services were yesterday preparing to catch the croc and return him to a place well away from people.

So the croc can get into the farm to eat the chickens but the chickens cannot get out?

Friend had a cobra appear in his chicken run and told me his chickens all got into one corner and started piling up on each other in the corner. They had space to get away but seemed to want to stick together. 

Maybe that's what they do when really scared.

Edit.

Seems it's called piling??
