Anyone see the irony in this?

in the article it said the crocodile lived, if you click on the picture it said police had to put the croc down.

irony = endangered species getting shot in the zoo?

crazy picture though.

When i first hear the story yesterday I could of sworn I heard the news guy said the croc died, then when i read the artical this morning It said it lived so i had to edit the post.

I see irony in the fact that yes the crock was nearly killed as it was supposed to be protected. I also see irony in the fact that the poor vet was trying to help it, it bit his hand off and they wound up shooting it.

More or less despite the story I just think the picture was post worthy.

that croc is mean looking, its face almost looks animated.

it looks more like an alligator, i thought crocks had higher noses to breath while submerged and thinner jaws. Oh well what do i know

im an emt and i try to help people..... but if some dude bit my arm off, i'd be all for blasting his ass!

That's insane... the picture almost looks fake too. Not enough blood... then again ive never seen an arm ripped off so maybe that's par for the course

its kinda wierd that its just carrying the wrist around in its teeth, i mean, if you were a crocadile and you just went through the trouble of ripping someone limb off, wouldnt you just eat it... looks to me like he is taunting the zoo keepers

A normal croc would, but he is a warrior croc. They have captured him and few of his proud race remain. This attests to the ancient glory of his warrior bretheren.


That, or he just saw 300.
