TARENTUM, Pa. - A 3-foot long crocodile was left on a woman's porch with a note saying "please feed me."





The crocodile was discovered Thursday night in a container on the woman's porch and was large enough to seriously hurt a child, said Derron Patterson, an animal control officer for Triangle Pet Animal Control Services of McKees Rocks.


Patterson's group plans to call zoos and rescue groups to try and find a home for the crocodile.


It's the second time in less than a year that his group has had to pick up a large reptile. A 4-foot alligator was found last year in Wilkinsburg.


Patterson said many people will buy reptiles when they're really small, not realizing they will grow to be very large and dangerous.

they were selling them in a pet shop near me a few years back, and after a big fuss there was a change of law to stop it happening again!

Bet that was a surprise.

"Sorry Johnny was late for school, there was a large croc in the front garden."

Detention written all over that
