Attack of the Crocs! Hundreds of Crocs Loose in Guangdong City

Attack of the Crocs! Hundreds of Crocs Loose in Guangdong City
Jun 25, 2013 By eChinacities.com

Due to recent heavy rainfall, hundreds of crocodiles have managed to break free from a crocodile farm in Maoming, Guangdong, and have made their way into the local Feima River.

Authorities have put schools on high alert and have warned parents from keeping their children from grassy areas as well as rivers and lakes. Reportedly, the particular species on the loose is the Nile Crocodile and the Siamese Crocodile; the biggest of which can reach a weight of 500kg.

No casualties have been reported yet, though four crocodiles have been recaptured while two more have been caught and eaten by locals. Nice.
