Russian Crocodile Had A Falling-Out With Its Owner

Never seen a crocodile fall out of the sky? Residents in the Russian nuclear research town of Sarov were shocked to see just that. The 1m caiman crocodile landed on a footpath after leaning too far out of the window of its owner's twelfth-floor. Startled passers-by called emergency services and rescuers managed to lasso the stunned animal and take it to a shelter for stray pets. It was returned to its owner unharmed, apart from damage to one of its fangs.

FOOTNOTE: Send it back to the caiman Islands.
