Starving crocodiles finally fed amid Honduras legal row


TEGUCIGALPA: Some 11,000 crocodiles that have gone unfed for almost a month -- because their Honduran owners had their assets frozen due to US accusations they laundered money for drug traffickers -- were finally fed Tuesday, officials said.

Pablo Dubon of the state Forest Conservation Institute said 10,500 kilos (more than 23,000 pounds) of chicken had been provided to feed the animals at the Cocodrilos Continental farm, owned by the Rosenthal family in San Manuel, near San Pedro Sula in Honduras.
