At first i thought this is a clever CGI work but apparently this
looks like a real story. This happened in a taiwan zoo when a
vet was asked to look into appetite issue of a rather large nile
croc. When the vet put his hand into the bar to give a tranquilizer
the croc's appetite suddenly returned and it snapped his arm
(mistaken for afternoon snacks perhaps).
The poor guy fainted immediately and was rushed to the hospital.
Just when the croc "aaramse" sat down to have its snack which
walked right into its mouth, alert zoo keepers tried to shoot it and
the croc sensing its survival in danger ran for cover dropping its
tit-bit.
பாவம் வாய்க்கு எட்டினது வயத்துக்கு எட்டல
Anyway alls well that ends well, the arm was retrieved, cleaned
and was reattached with the vet again who seems to be happy to
be back in one piece
Speaking of giant crocs there is this man-eating beast in burundi
called "gustave" which weighs a ton and is 6 m long. It is still not
yet captured as bullets are unable to pierce its thick skin and in
fact it is characterized by bullet marks (கொசுக் கடி). It seems
that this guy swim up and down stream along lake tanganyika
and devours fisherman and bathers en route. (ஏதொ கடலை
முட்டாய் சாப்பிடற மாதிரி).
The movie "Primeval" is based on this guy. A youtube video is
also dedicated to this guy. Looks cute in the video though ;)
