Authorities in southern China have initiated a large-scale operation to locate and secure over 70 crocodiles that escaped following severe flooding caused by a typhoon that swept through the region last week. The incident occurred near the city of Maoming in Guangdong province when heavy rains from the typhoon led to the overflow of a commercial crocodile farm’s lake.
Local media reports have stated that the flooding resulted in the escape of a total of 69 adult crocodiles and six juveniles, who were found roaming near the village of Peng Cun.
