Dave Human, who is the owner of the crocodiles revealed in a Facebook group, Krugersdorp Community Forum that his crocodiles had gone missing in the Krugersdorp area.

Human posted: “Please be on the lookout for 2 crocodiles. They were kept to be recovered for a farm and somehow the got out of the enclosure. They where in Voortrekker Road. If you spot them please call Dave 0833771040.”

Dave Human also reveals that his pet crocodiles Knuckles and Fang were recovered.

He adds that the reptiles were first spotted at a tollgate near Hammanskraal, looking ill and exhausted and he saved them from being sold. 

“The small one was found in the neighbours’ pool; Croc City recovered him yesterday,” said Human.

He also thanks the SPCA for recovering the second croc and commends their great work.

Human adds that they were staying at the pool in the estate in the interim, where a lot of young people live, and they’ve created a crocodile pit for them.
