'Godzilla' croc hunted in Ukraine
 
:D So it seems as if there are even more croc happenings:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6939665.stm

Emergency workers are hunting a crocodile which has escaped from a travelling circus in southern Ukraine.

It went missing in the sea at Mariupol, close to Ukraine's border with Russia.
There have been a number of sightings of the animal, including a photo in a local newspaper, but all attempts to capture it have so far failed.
The crocodile, named Godzilla, was being paraded on a beach in Mariupol on the south coast of Ukraine when it suddenly ran into the Azov Sea.
But despite its name, the creature has been keeping a low profile.


Elusive creature
Godzilla, who is only is one metre long, is said to be scared of humans.
More than two months after its escape, a local newspaper in southern Ukraine has printed a picture of what it says is Godzilla.
The photo appears to show a small crocodile resting on a rusting boat.
Emergency workers are now trying to catch the animal.
But Godzilla is proving elusive and has not been temped by slabs of meat left on the shore.
A Russian news agency has claimed that the team is planning to use live guinea pigs to lure the crocodile out of the water.
However, a spokeswoman for Ukraine's emergency ministry denied this and said the workers are just going to sit and wait for Godzilla to wander onto the beach.

Man, has anyone else seen Primeval?

It's a direct to dvd movie but it's better than most theatrical films!:cool:

It's about these 3 Americans going to Africa to investigate a story about a man eating Croc and capture it if possible. Things go wrong but not in a typical horror film sort of way. It's a very good action film with some great performances and effects. Craziest thing is that it's loosely based on a true story and the monster Croc is still out there munching people.:eek:
