Boy Flees In Panic As Giant Croc Chases Him Through Water

A young swimmer luckily escapes being eaten by a crocodile in Sian Ka’an, Mexico.

“Unfortunately that crocodile already associated us with food.”

A horrifying footage of a boy trying to escape from being caught by a huge crocodile who was chasing him through the water appeared on the Internet.
Luckily for the boy, a witted witness to the incident,  who was standing on a nearby bridge, managed to stop the predator by throwing an object at him.  The swimmer reached the shore while the crocodile gave chase.
Some also believe that the boy was lucky as the reptile is fed regularly by tourists and fishermen and wasn’t feeling hungry. Locals themselves do not swim in these waters as it’s to dangerous.
Manuel Cerrara, who shot the video said, “Unfortunately, that crocodile already associated us with food and as the video shows the boy was saved because the crocodile is well fed and chased at a pace that allowed him to reach the shore.”
Crocodile attacks on people are common in places where large crocodilians are native and human populations live. Only six of the 23 crocodilian species are considered dangerous to adult humans, and only individuals 2 metres  in length or more represent a serious danger to humans, as smaller crocodiles are considered incapable of killing a person.
However, even the smallest species can inflict painful bites requiring stitches if harassed. In addition, a small child may be of a similar size to the prey of some of the crocodilian species incapable of preying on adult humans. The two species with the most well-known and documented reputation for preying on humans are the Nile crocodile and saltwater crocodile.see vidoo Boy Flees In Panic As Giant Croc Chases Him Through Water
