What’s up, croc? Florida deputies capture large crocodile

Monroe County deputies, others keep beast from wandering into traffic

MONROE COUNTY, Fla. – A group of Florida deputies and wildlife workers in Monroe County jumped into action over the weekend to help a very large crocodile.

The reptile was trying to access a canal that was blocked by a fence.

Amid concerns that the croc would wander into nearby traffic, the group, including good Samaritans, trapped the crocodile before releasing it into a waterway.
