Croc watch near Kota Kinabalu hospital


KOTA KINABALU: Wildlife authorities here are keeping watch on the monsoon drains near Queen Elizabeth Hospital for more crocodiles following the recent capture of a reptile at a nearby housing area.

Sabah Wildlife Department director Datuk Dr Laurentius Ambu said the 2m-long crocodile caught at the nearby Kepayan Ridge flats on Jan 3 appeared to be smaller than the one spotted in the monsoon drain near the hospital last August.
