Saw something about that in the newspaper, Dave. Where was it? Not your part of Africa, I hope! The article mentioned something like 200 crocs escaping from a farm during floods. Just the sort of things you don't want to see yawning at you when you open the front door  :bugeye: .

Hi Andy,
200, I wish 15000, yep 15 thousand.
Now one would have thought someone would have realised opening the "door" is going to lead to the great escape.
Funny really  :D  :D  :D

Around 15,000 crocodiles escaped from a farm in South Africa after heavy rain and flooding hit the north of the country.

The owner of the Rakwena Crocodile Farm was forced to open the gates on Sunday after concern over a storm surge, local press reported. Many of the crocodiles have since been recaptured but over half remain on the loose in the Limpopo River.

"There used to be only a few crocodiles in the Limpopo River. Now there are a lot,"
Yep 7000 is a lot  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
