Sky-diving crocodile in Russia
by Ioana Madalina Tantareanu
Wednesday, in Moskow, emergency services reported a crocodile to have survived a 12 floor fall, after trying to make an escape through an apartment block window. According to Moskovsky Komsomolets, the concerned neighbours said that Khenar is becoming quite fond of this dangerous sport, as this was the third time the pet-crocodile tryed to flee his owner's apartment by sky-diving through the window. According to a spokeswoman for the emergencies ministry in central Russia's Nizhny Novgorod region, the crocodile also became quite experienced in diving from windows, as he came out unscathed from the fall, with only one tooth missing. Acording to the spokeswoman "It seems the owner was not at home when the crocodile came out of the window", which leads us to thinking, such rude behaviour from the croc would not be tolerated in the owner's presence. The local emergency services put the determined fugitive in an aquarium to recover from his fall and chipped tooth, and in within a few hours his concerned owner came to pick him up and return him to his home. The last time he was seen, Khenar, the sky-diving crocodile was lying safely on the back seat of his owner's car and heading for his home-sweet-home at the 12th floor.
