VADODARA: Two days after a girl was attacked by a crocodile in Waghodia taluka, the forest department rescued a reptile from the Dev river. The nine-foot-long crocodile was trapped in a cage kept near the river and will be released in another water body.
"The crocodile was rescued from the same place where the girl was killed. There are a couple of crocodiles that frequent the spot," said Hemant Vadhwana, wildlife activist. After the attack, locals were scared to venture near the river. The girl was washing clothes on the river bank when the reptile attacked her and dragged her into water.
