Stomper Patsy was trekking at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve this morning (Feb 16) with her friend when she spotted what looked like a log floating in the wetland.
Upon closer inspection, the Stomper realised it was a crocodile after she noticed that the ‘log’ had a tail.
According to the Stomper, the crocodile was roughly 1.5m in length and it looked like it was having a snapping good time just floating around.
