When I saw the headline I immediately thought of an old croc wearing daggy tight shorts.

Due to the hot weather, it is assumed that the croc escaped from it's cage in search of food.

Looks like the means to escape is weather related, not negligence or bad maintenance...so whenever it's hot, crocs escape!

Sounds like a Croc of S#it.

This incident occurred without the knowledge of the owners since they were away upcountry.

Here I was thinking, Nakhornpathom itself is upcountry.

A meter long croc loose? Give me a break this is lunch in most places in the LOS.

Make that lunch, a belt, a handbag and a pair of shoes.
