This is the story of two crocodiles, aged two years and five months

KUALA LUMPUR: Who would have thought that crocodiles, often feared as ferocious predators, could appear as gentle as doves when cuddled and rocked to sleep in their keeper’s arms, much like a baby?

This is the story of two crocodiles, aged two years and five months, whose antics recently went viral on social media. The two reptiles, named Ali and Acong, were seen being gently cuddled and soothed to sleep by their keeper, revealing a different side to the often-feared creatures.

99 Wonderland Park (Wildlife In The City) Zoology Manager Mohd Rizal Manoor said the two crocodiles were offspring of a breeding pair, Goldie (female) and Lipis (male), and had been cared for at the park since hatching.
