Freshwater crocodile



This freshwater crocodile was found in someones driveway. Unfortunately it is missing its entire top jaw. We don't know what removed it, possibly a dog, a car or another croc. While crocs can and do survive with a substantial amount of their jaws missing - this one is missing too much and would not be able to eat so we had to euthanase it to prevent it from starving to death. Unfortunately not every story has a happy ending.
