“I have been fishing at this mine for 7 years and I’ve never seen any crocodiles before. However, my friend says he spotted a crocodile at an old mine before but I’m not sure if it's the same one.”

A baby crocodile has been found at an old mine in Chalong yesterday (February 1) by local fishermen. Specialists say the reptile appears to be about 1 year old.

 

The two men who found the crocodile, Suchatee Anoma and Pansak Chantawang, say that they were catching fish at the old mine in Soi Nakok and spotted a baby crocodile on an isle in the mine. They used a fishing rod to capture the crocodile from where they were and managed to get it after 30 minutes.

 

The bought the young crocodile into their house, found a bucket big enough and contacted Fisheries and Wildlife department officials. The baby is about 50 cm long and is healthy.
