A family in Vadodara found a crocodile in their compound.
On Wednesday night, a family in Vadodara, Gujarat received an unpleasant surprise - a crocodile in their house. Footage released by ANI shows the 4.5-foot-long crocodile on residential property before it was captured. So how did the reptile find its way from a river to a residential area? According to forest officer PB Chauhan, the floods and overflowing waters in Gujarat carried the crocodile out of its habitat - the Vishwamitri river of Vadodara.
The crocodile was later captured by forest officials and released back into the river.
