Crocodile caught wandering around California mall
ROSEVILLE, CA — Don't shed any tears for a crocodile that was captured wandering outside a pet store at a Northern California shopping mall.
California Fish and Wildlife officials have taken custody of the croc, are feeding it rainbow trout and will likely donate it to a zoo.
Police say the crocodile was apparently left outside the Roseville store by someone who didn't want it anymore.
The animal had grown to 4-feet long, and its jaws had been wrapped shut with heavy-duty tape. There was a note identifying it as a Nile crocodile and requesting someone "call rescue."

A crocodile petting area at this mall could surely bring in more shoppers ...

Just a hunch that it answers to the name of “Snaps”.

So the blonde opened the action on her shotgun, flipped the dead croc over and exclaimed, “Darn it! This one’s not wearing shoes either...”

“You said that crocodile was in California because he was a vegetarian!”
“No, I said he was in California because he eats fruits and nuts!”

“No, I said he was in California because he eats fruits and nuts!” Well the article did say that...
The animal had grown to 4-feet long, and its jaws had been wrapped shut with heavy-duty tape.
Probably headed to an OA meeting.

Maybe it’s a test run for a snappy California CommieCare mascot.
On the next visit there won’t be any duct tape.
Don’t have a Doc? Say “Hello” to the croc!
