Crocodile Found in Vadodara Cattle Shed Safely Captured by Rescue Team
A five-foot crocodile entered a cattle shed in Dena village near Vadodara, causing concern among livestock owners. Farmer Vishal Bharwad alerted the Wildlife Rescue Trust, which, along with forest officials, safely captured and relocated the reptile. The crocodile likely came from the nearby Vishwamitri river, home to over 400 crocodiles. Such incidents occur as crocodiles sometimes stray into human areas during monsoon. The rescue aimed to protect both the animal and local livestock.
