It is actually quite common for snakes or other animals to appear around us. Especially in summer, animals such as snakes will come out to look for food and move around, while animals such as crocodiles are relatively rare. After all, snakes have a very wide distribution range. Except for the North and South Poles of the earth, snakes exist on all continents, but the types and sizes of snakes in different regions are different. The distribution range of crocodiles is not that wide. Under normal circumstances, crocodiles are rarely seen where we live. Of course, there are some exceptions. For example, a 70-centimeter-long crocodile was found in a small community in Jiangsu. Where did it come from?

A crocodile was found in the community

A 70-centimeter-long crocodile appeared in the corridor of a community in Suzhou . It kept its head high and made a gesture of pouncing on the approaching people. It showed its teeth and claws and had a ferocious temperament. It's scary. After seeing a crocodile appearing in the corridor of the community, nearby residents were very worried and did not dare to pass through the corridor. Finally, the police caught him and put him in a bucket.

The staff of the crocodile breeding base said that the crocodile that appeared in the community is Siamese crocodile . Since it is only four or five months old and is in the seedling stage, its size is not very big, only 70cm. About centimeters in length. As for why the crocodile appears in the community, some residents believe that someone may have raised it at home and accidentally let it escape. Because the nearest river to the community is only two to three hundred meters away, and there are no crocodiles in the nearby rivers, it is unlikely that the crocodiles appearing in the community come from the wild. Since no clues about the crocodile have been found yet, the police finally sent the crocodile to a crocodile breeding base for resettlement.

Missing crocodiles in Yibin

On May 9, 2022, Yibin Heavy rains caused the river water levels to rise. Six Siamese crocodiles in a breeding farm took advantage of the rising water levels to escape. Some people said they might have escaped. Entered Jinshajiang . After the incident, the relevant departments quickly organized personnel to conduct a search.

So many crocodile car farms have disappeared without a trace. I guess many friends are worried. After all, crocodiles are relatively aggressive animals. If we encounter these crocodiles, we may be attacked by them. Fortunately, all six crocodiles were found the next day. Each weighed about 15 kilograms and was about 1 meter long. Their mouths were tied with ropes.

Siamese crocodile

Don’t look at the Siamese crocodile that appeared in the community before. It is only a few tens of centimeters long and does not look big. In fact, the Siamese crocodile is a medium-sized crocodile. The Siamese crocodile mentioned above is tens of centimeters and about one meter. It can only be regarded as a seedling. According to data, Siamese crocodiles can grow up to 4 meters long when they reach adulthood, which is higher than a building. If we encounter a Siamese crocodile that is tens of centimeters and nearly 1 meter long, it will be better, and it will be easier to catch. If we encounter an adult Siamese crocodile, when faced with a behemoth of about 4 meters long, It is relatively difficult to catch them, and the danger may be greater.

Siamese crocodile, also known as Siam freshwater crocodile , Thai crocodile , is mainly distributed in Southeast Asia, such as Cambodia , Indonesia , Laos , Thailand and other countries. There are Siamese crocodiles, which were originally in our country. There are no Siamese crocodiles. Logically speaking, the Siamese crocodile that appears here is actually an invasive species.

As a medium-sized crocodile, the current situation of the Siamese crocodile is actually not optimistic. As early as 1992, it was internationally recognized as extinct in the wild. Scientists later discovered a small number of Siamese crocodiles in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, There are also a small number of Siamese crocodiles in some swamps far away from humans in countries such as Vietnam .
