In recent times a video of a crocodile eating a human body in Vadodara went viral which terrified the locals of Vadodara and concern grew of spotting crocodiles in the city.

Residents of a colony in Bil had been living in fear over the last few days after two crocodiles ventured into a pit nearby. A grown-up and another younger reptile were spotted by the locals near Wood Scrape Society following which they informed the volunteers of Gujarat Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (GSPCA).

“We reached the spot on Thursday with the forest officials and laid a trap for the reptile. A three-and-half-feet crocodile was rescued from the pit,” said Raj Bhavsar who runs GSPCA. Another crocodile is yet to be rescued.

With monsoons arriving, crocodiles from Vishwamitri River often venture out of their abode and migrate to other water bodies in the city
